Hi all,
I am in dire need of some help! I would like to replace the drab little password dialog box that pops up for the db password with my own form that will have a nice picture, title and a textbox to enter the password.

Can anyone tell me how I would go about over-writing the standard password prompt with my own form and how to pass the password from the textbox on my form to Access for authentication?

Thanks a whole bunch!!!!
 
How about making up a Table called UserList. This table could include things like UserName, PassWord, LoginName... It would enable each user to have their own individual passwords.
Create a macro which will open your Login form, being sure to name it Autoexec. Each time the database is opened the login form will appear. Hope this is of some help. :cool:
