How to recover forms

Res. All,
  I had developed an application in Microsoft Access secured with a
workgroup file(*.mdw). I had put securities in such a way that the users
will not have the mdw file created by me and then they will open the
forms,reports etc. They can only open the forms but they can not make
changes or view the design of the form as they are not given permissions for
that.
  Now the problem is , I have lost that mdw file and the user wants to make
changes to form. How can I do it?

Thanks in advance

Prashant

Create a duplicate mdw file using the same info you used to create the first
mdw file.  You wrote that info down in case you lost the mdw file, right?
