Stop Users Importing Tables and Queries

[Annette]

I have developed a small database which I can secure from the front but other
users are able to use FILE, IMPORT and bring in my whole database, how can I
stop this. I am particularly worried about other people copying the database
design not the actual data

Any help would be gratefully received

Give them an MDE instead of an MDB and then the design can neither be viewed nor
altered. If objects can be imported into other files then you didn't apply
security properly or at least forgot to remove those permissions.

Thanks Rick,

I'll try it and let you know the outcome
