No such thing. There's a Security FAQ you must read and follow the
steps exactly. I'd suggest asking your question i the
microsoft.public.access.security with a little more details as to your
objective and what version of Access.

Hi Robert,

The simplist form of security would be to just rely on Windows Security,
giving RWCD privileges for a shared folder (for the back-end database of a
split application) only to those people who have a need to gain access to
your application. If you wish to implement Access User Level Security (ULS),
be aware that it can be easily cracked by people determined to do so, and it
is not fully supported in the newest version of Access (Access 2007).

Here is a good web site for Access ULS, if you wish to pursue this method:
