Copyright DetailsHello
I have seen the MDE code protector in everything access. If you use this is there a way to add in copyright information? I know all of the commented lines are taken out so how is it normally done? David David <Da***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote:

It states something like "Copyright 1983 IBM". Now someone could conceivably overwrite that with a hex editor.

Plus I put in a "watermark": It is a constant with
text that I manually encrypted. A plagerizer would probably overlook the watermark. Also I place a copyright statement at the bottom of each form which is filled in each time the form is open by a special procedure that decodes another constant and inserts it into the copyright text box control. Generally I make it difficult for the plagerizer to change the copyright.
