I've seen many discussion going around this question without seeing one actually answering it. What I have is a VB application, using DAO to read an Access 2000 .mdb file. I would like to know how to encrypt my database files so that only my vb app can access its content.

It's not for preventing users to do unwanted changes to the DB, it's for avoiding users to steal my DB's content (said that way to make it clear). I don't want my data to be accessed by anyone, at any cost because it contains confidential information. Since a password can be cracked, i'm not interested in that solution. Making the .mdb files invisible is an idea, but not a solution.

Thanks for the help.
