I have a front end/ back end data base in access 2003, I have secured the
front end with password and convert to mde and disable shift bypass key,
my
question is how can I prevent back end from accidental or deliberate
deletion.
Thanks in advance
There are a couple of precautions you can take. First, put the BE in a
hidden folder. Next, set the NT file permissions on the *file* to RWX (ie
NOT delete) - be sure not to do this on the folder since all users need
RWXD permissions to handle the record locking file.
Just be aware that after you compact the BE, you'll need to reset the
permissions on the file, as it will inherit the permissions from the folder.
Securing the backend won't prevent its deletion.
