Password "protection"

Thanks for the tip on just how secure access database passwords really are.
I don't know if I want to protect my database with a system that can be
cracked with a $15 software download from a web site.

Just to be clear, it's not really the fault of Access. Realistically,
anytime the user must have physical access to the file, it's virtually
impossible to truly secure the data.

To get better security, you need a server-based DBMS, like SQL Server,
Oracle or DB2.
