      Convert your database in an MDE file. (Tools-Database Utilties
      make .MDE file.)

          but makes sure you have a copy of your original MDB first

              MDE does nothing to protect tables NOR queries.

              Further, we have had reliable reports that there is third-party software
              available that will re-generate a usable .MDB from an .MDE -- something long
              thought to be impossible.

              Still, the combination of Access' security and compiling to .MDE is as good
              security as you can get for Access and the Jet DB engine. Be sure to
              download the Access Security FAQ from Microsoft site, and study it
              carefully -- miss one step and you can end up with a "secured" database that
              is so insecure that anyone can log in, or "so secure" that even you cannot
              log in.
