How to stop outside table linking?

[slenish]

Hello everyone,

I am wondering how can I stop someone from linking to tables on my database? I was playing around and testing a database I finished and found that I can link to the tables still, even hidden ones. So im trying to figure out a way you can not create a link to them either at all or with out a password or something.

I have been looking around to find a solution and so far no luck.

Any ideas??

Thanks in advance :)

Hi colintis,

thanks for the reply! Looks like your post(link) is what i needed the only thing is im not sure where to put the code??

Yes, I get your point from reading clearly on the post.

From what I searched, you can try look for the solution to execute the code on startup (Reference), then work out the hideAttribute (reference)

Thanks colintis,

I sort of figured out a way to make it work. I set it up on a dummy form that I hide so when im on the back end i can either hide or un-hide the tables when i need to.

thanks again!!
