Opening .mdb file only for Viewing

I want to open an .mdb file for viewing purposes to the User
The User should not be able to change anything contained in that database
He should be able to only view the contents
How can I achieve this
For Word,Powerpoint and Excel, in the Open method itself we can specify whether the file is to be opened as Readonly
But I do not find any such specification for access .md
I do not want to change the attributes of file and make it Readonly
The code that I am using right now i

Dim objAccessAppl As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Applicatio
objAccessAppl = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Applicatio
objAccessAppl.Visible = Tru
objAccessAppl.OpenCurrentDatabase("Filename.mdb", False

Can anyone please guide how to do this
I am using Access 10.0 object library in VB.NET

TIA.
