Prevent Users From Design View of a form
I would like to prevent users from opening a specific form in design view.
This includes preventing the form from opening when the user clicks on the Design button in the Forms tab of the database window. Thanks for any ideas. Sha. |

Prevent Users From Design View of a form
If you want to do things the proper way, you need to incorporate user-level
security to your access database. Since this is only for a specific form, you may not have a choice. If it were for all forms, you would be able to save it as an MDE file but since it's for a specific form, you may not have a choice. Secure your database then apply the proper permissions to that form only. "Sha S" wrote: I would like to prevent users from opening a specific form in design view.

The easiest way is to create an mde and deliver that instead of the mdb.
Also, set the startup options to hide the database window and prevent the user from being able to bypass your startup by holding down the shift key. -- Dave Hargis, Microsoft Access MVP "Sha S" wrote: I would like to prevent users from opening a specific form in design view.
