Hi

I've been asked by my customer to add the facility to allow another machine to access their application in the same office, and allow the user to edit certain details in a table.

However, the user will be quite computer literate and they are concerned that he will be able to access/copy the DBFs and take them away with him.

How can I make the data only accesable via the software?

I seem to remember there was a trick you could with the database container to stop the dbfs from being opened without 1st correctly opening the database?

Is a third party product probably best? As usual the customer does not want to spend a lot of money on this.

I'm not using SQL! I selected it by mistake.

Thx in advance
Rob
