Protecting form setup's

[Jason Frazer]

How can i protect the forms, query, and report designs. I
don't want to make it where i can't open the tables and do
data enry there. I know you can control this per
computer. But how can I protect the file so I can e-mail
and not worry about someone modify the design.
What is the best way to do this?

Simple method: convert the mdb into a MDE file.

For real paranoids, you can then secure the database using Access security.

I don't the the MDE file because i can not convert the
file back to make changes to the forms or tables. How can
i do this?

Thanks for your help

Huh? When you create an MDE, you must keep a copy of the MDB. When you need
to change the MDE, you must change the MDB, then recreate the MDE.
