Maybe pressing the bypass key when opening the file will help.

:

In the toolbar, there might or might not be a database window option.
Under Tools/Startup, you can enable or disable the full menus. The
Tools menubar may or may not be available in your application depending
on what the original developer set up.

In Google you can search for
Access bypasskey
to determine the key.

There may be a reason your friend doesn't want people to view everything
in/from the database window. And I don't know your application. So
I'm providing a hint, not a total solution. If he/she disabled full
menus under Startup or disabled the bypass key there probably is a reason.
