    Actually, I did need to open a PW protected accdb on a shared drive from a task planner from within a Windows Server (night jobs) and solved the problem using VBScript:

    Set accdbObj = Wscript.CreateObject("Access.Application")
    accdbObj.OpenCurrentDatabase Path, , "myPassword"

    "Normal" users don't have access to the server so I had no worries about a plain-text PW in my VBScript file.

  3. Give us a PDB (Program Debug Database) as in VS

    I encrypt the FE using a PW and launch the FE from a separate EXE. Being able to encrypt the whole FE except say "Autostart" would be nice.
