[MS_AccessPros] Re: Securing FE

Doyce,

Yes, exactly the same what you wrote i'm being doing for many years. This makes me clear what i'm doing up to now is correct. I need not to bother more upon it and keep doing my work as before.

I use the option in my FE, Database Tools------>Make ACCDE in the right corner, not Save as which you mentioned.

Please tell am i on the right path?

You relieved me off from big headache.

Thanks for your reply and help

Khalid,

Your customer's data is in the BE. This is where the tables reside. He must have that. If he deletes it, he has lost all data. The FE is the interface that the customer uses. You should give it to them secured in an ACCDE file. This protects your code and your work. It sounds to me like you are a bit confused with what an ACCDE file is. I build the user interface in an ACCDB then when I'm ready for the user to have it, I save a copy of the ACCDB as an ACCDE using SAVE AS. I keep the ACCDB for further development. The customer (user) gets the ACCDE file. I hope this answers your question.

Hi all & respected MVP's,

After more than a year I'm back, the reason is that I'm sick and on bed due to problem with my legs & feet, moreover my laptop was destroyed.

Anyways struggling and now ambitious to start working, during my this period of illness I think over what I have been doing and was forced and stop me on one main point which, I was doing wrong from the very beginning which I ignored and now realized that is a must. It was giving to my client .be + .accde instead of giving .fe + .accde.

But I've some concerns in this regard for which I'm not clear, I need & request complete guidance step by step, I remember John helped and posted in perhaps last quarter of 2013 how to secure FE and I put one module about shift bypass key in my database.

Now in a week or so I have to make many changes in my application on the request and demand of my client, so that is why I need help and guidance from the group.

Very first thing is that I've always given BE and .ACCDE to my client, I mean to say whenever the changes or updating was demanded by him, I took his BE make necessary work, copy his BE on my laptop and pass him his BE and latest .ACCDE.

Now for the first time I will give him secured FE + .ACCDE, should I ask him to delete his BE or it may remain on his system.

Secondly, what is the procedure of giving FE to client, would I have to make separate copy of secured FE for my client and protected copy of FE for me to make future updating and changes.

Need help please.

Regards

Khalid
