When i wanted to deny these on my databases, i simply compiled a mde with some startup option forcing the user to go through my forms for adding/editing/deleting data from the databases. My forms have their own mechanisms for controlling access to the data.

BUT... i just found out that you can open a MDE holding shift and bypassing all the startup options as you can do with a mdb... which mean that a user could just bypass all my forms/control and go directly in the databases to do almost whatever he wants.

Is there any way to avoid this?
