Property Editor Description |
|
| |
The Property Editor utility allows you to edit the startup properties for a Microsoft Access MDB file without having to open the database directly. The utility is primarily intended for Access developers who prefer to distribute their Access mdb or mde applications with the AllowBypassKey property disabled.
Startup Properties
Startup properties affect how your database application appears when it is opened. For example, startup properties enable you to customize the applications title bar, menus, toolbars, and startup form.
The Property Editor exposes 12 of the standard properties available for Microsoft Access mdbs and in addition, also exposes the Allow SHIFT To Bypass Startup Options (AllowBypassKey) property, useful for developers who wish to further secure their database design.
In some cases, with an MDBs startup properties, you can alter options that could result in you being locked out of your database design. If you are faced with this situation, you can quickly edit the database startup properties with the Property Editor without having to import all the objects into a new database file or write VBA code in an external database to reset the properties. |
