Disable SHIFT + ENTER

M

Mike Thomas

In Access 2000, we have an app which has a back end mdb and a front end mde;
the tables bing linked into the mde.

At present, any of the users could open the mde by holding down the SHIFT
key and clicking on the icon. The mde opens in development mode, giving
them the opportunity to wreak havok with the data if they want.

How can this option be disabled?

Many thanks

Hi, Mike.
How can this option be disabled?
Click to expand...

Disable the shift bypass key. Bear in mind that someone with knowledge of
Access can turn this back on. In that case, you'd have to implement
User-Level security to prevent it.
