How can I get an Access database to use data from an outside Form

[Snow]

I know you have to set the security on the database to allow outside data. I
also know there are certain steps involved but I'm not sure that they are.
The end result being that when you right click on the database, without
opening it, and click properties in the dropdown menu a Security tab should
appear.

I have Office 2000, and Windows XP OS.

Could you explain what you want to do? 'use data from an outside Form' -
what does that mean? Forms don't have data; 'outside' - where is it?

You do not have to set securtiy to allow 'outside' data. The security tab
in the properties window refers to Windows Security; nothing to do with
Access security.
