I have a database that I have secured it so well that I now cant get back into it!

I've removed the "Startup" option from the toolbar as well as the Access toolbar. I cant right-click on the menubars and holding down the shift-key etc wont work. I tried importing all the objects into a blank DB but because I used a password on the code window I cant import any of the Forms as it requires that I enter it in the original.

I cant see any way out of this. Does anyone else have any tricks up their sleeve?
 
You could try setting a reference to your database using the code window of a new database. You can then import your forms, as you will be asked to supply the code password when you try to look at the referenced database's modules. This works in Access 2000. I hope I have understood your post.
 
Oh, and you should be able to add code to get rid of some of the things that are causing problems.
 
Thanks for the replies Remou.

I've got a "Compile Code" function available to me in my app and using that brings up the DB window.

Happy days!
