With access that's about as good as you get. You can always put a password on the DB as well. But that is truly trivial to crack once you get the mdb.

He is very worried about the security of his database. Currently I store the database in a non-web-accessible directory on a shared server, but that's it. Is there anything else I can reasonably do? (the website is being done quite cheaply) I have read some articles on security but they all seem to focus on encrypting a string rather than actually protecting the database as such. Any clues please?? ______________________________________________________________________ Get Your Own Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation � $99/Month � Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusionb FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
