change use of MDW file, using VB ?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I want to change my access database to use another mdw file because we
have a security problem in the file we are using today. Of course I can
change the security in the file we are using today but if our customer
saves an old mdw file they will still be able to use that one and the
security problem.
Our app are dev. In VB6 and I want to change our access database in the
next version of our app. And I want to change it with VB.
Q: Is it possible to change an access database to use another mdw file
or build a new mdw file with a new PID or change the existing PID.

I do not want our customer to send me there databases for converting
(there are to many) I want it to be done automatically by my app.
