Re: database open control

What kind of password are you talking about?

If a database password, the shift key shouldn't matter.

If you've applied user-level security (so that users have to provide both a
User Id and Password), you haven't applied it correctly, as it's not that
easy to bypass.

If you've applied your own security, how are you doing it? (Be aware that
home-grown security approaches seldom work)

Hi all, I have set my data base to ask for password when it opens, if the
password is wrong it wont open the database, but when the user presses
Shift
and open the database it baypass all the start up settings, is there any
way
to password protect the open database while holding shift? or direct it to
run a procedure or open a certain form while database is opened by holding
shift?
