disbaling of Shift on Startup

[WSF]

Access97
I presently use an mdb to disable/enable the Shift on StartUp key on
other mdb/mde files.

This obviously means that anyone else can do likewise with appropriate code.

Is there a way to password protect this AllowBypass function in the
target MDB/MDE ?

TIA

No, but if you use Access User Level Security (advanced topic) to secure the
databases then you can use an additional argument with the statement that
disables the shift key so that only a person with administrator authority in the
workgroup file would be able to reset it.
