Hi

I have set up my database so that it could not be edited by the users but i thought there would be a 'unhide' option like I had used on previous databases. Now I cant go back in and edit my database. It is not password protected or anything like that I was just wondering if you knew the answer to this question.

Thanks

Jamie

Hi ! and Welcome to Utter Access ! -o!

It all depends on how you have prevented editing. Hopefully, if you've converted it to an MDE file, you made a backup first.

How did you lock it?

OIC . . . try holding the "shift" key when you first open the database.
