    When Events Fire

    Scenairo:

    I'm an access database.
    Somebody on another access database is attempting to import or link objects from my database.

    Question:

    Is there an event that would fire in my database that would notify me that somebody is attempting to import or link from my database so that I can stop them from doing it?

    Summary:

    I want to secure my database so nobody can import or link to my objects.

    Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Put a password on it, unless you want to grant them access to the data.
    In SQL you can grant rights to various elements of the db such as tables, queries, views, etc, but don't know if Access supports that, or if it would work for forms, reports, etc.

    To get even more involved, you can create an .mdw workgroup security.
