Bypass Shiftkey Password

The concept is that a form that has the ability to disable the Shift Key design view mode is password protected.

This way only the designated users with the password can access the design view mode using the Shift Key.

Create a form that can be used as a starting point that all other forms (as needed) can be accessed from.

cations

Change the database settings so the form noted in step 1 is the startup form that is opened automatically when the

database is opened.

Don't forget to remove the Tools/Menus/Navigation Options that you don't want the user to have (i.e. uncheck

Display Navigation Pane & uncheck Allow Full Menus.
