Create a pop up password window

[AT76]

Hi,

I have an access app and would like to implement a password pop up screen at the startup. Would someone point me in the right direction as to how to go about doing this?

Thank you in advance!

Create a form for your login info, and set the database's startup form to this form.

And then once your password form is set up how you like it, try opening your database and press the F11 key. Oops! There are a million ways around a custom login form.

I recommend you grab the user's Windows username and use that value to identify the user instead; I've written a FAQ on this: Getting all types of Usernames in Access faq181-3779
