If users hold down the shift key before opening up a database on their desktop, it will give them the database window. I don't want them to have that available. Is their a way to take that away from them?
 
Look up AllowBypassKey in the Access help..
Bear in mind it's best to always leave the bypass key in the development version .. just copy a version for end-users and disable the ByPass key in that .. then repeat the process for upgrades. Ben

I have this and it works

If fOSUserName() = 378950 Then
Allow_ByPass_Key (-1)
Else
Allow_ByPass_Key (0)
End If

I can use the shift key the others users don't

I hope it helps
