Secure back end databaseI've created a split-database, front-end/back-end, and I want to stop
users from opening the back end database. The front end is unsure. We have only a few users and security is not an issue, if the network gives them access to the folder where the database sits, then they have access to open the front end. I want to secure the backend and make sure that users don't open this on its own. Is there any way to do this? Robby Buonocore Infocore Robby,
The simplest thing you can do and that will probably keep out 99% of your users is to put the backend database in a hidden folder on your network. Then, if your frontend doesn't give them access to the linked table manager, they are not likely to be able to find it.
