Stop users from displaying the database window

[vbajock]

Well, I put this program together that allows me to set database properties from a form, and the MSDN documentation stated that if I disabled the Special Keys and Display Database Window properties, the user would not be able to toggle the Display Database Window in the Startup Dialogue. Guess what. They are wrong, it didn't work, even with both of those properites disabled, I can still reset the window. How can I absolutely prevent the user from simply going into Startup options and gaining access to the tables programatically?

Will it prevent users from simply going back into the menus and resetting the properties thru the user interface? It looks like pretty much what I have programmed already.

yes, I trust Bill to have done this correctly.
