I have created a database I plan to distribute among several people. Not wishing them modify any of the forms or queries, I used the "Startup" form manager and disabled the "use full menus", "allow built in toolbars" and "allow toolbar/menu changes". Now I need to edit the database but am unable to get the form to load with full access/edit rights. Is there anyway to revert back to the original design view you normaly get when you create a database? If there isnt, what should I do in the future to avoid this problem? Set Admin passwords? Back up the database and use one for edit and one to distribute? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm hoping this is the easy one.

Hit File-Open, get your DB filename into view. Hold left shift key while double-clicking file name. This should bypass the "startup" stuff.

Hope it helps!
