Changing The Password
Apr 13, 2008i am doing a computing project using access 2003 and vba.
i have designed 2 forms A and B, form A is where a user to logs in to my system (with four main items: username (combo box), password (textbox) and two buttons) and form B is where the user can change their password (with four items: username (username (combo box), new password (textbox) and password verify (textbox) and a button that checks everything and updates the password).
Form A has two buttons, one button can log the user into the system after typing in their correct username and password credentials, and the other button gives the option to change their password also after typing in their correct username and password credentials (and the opens up form B for the user to change their password)
My question is, when the user presses the button to open up form B, what code could i use (or methods in access) that would set the username field (in form B) the same as in form A automatically without the user having to select it again?
All help would be much appreciated
Forms :: Changing The Password In The Table From A Form
May 9, 2013I have a login button in which if the username has an empty password or the user is his/her first time to login, another form will appear which is the Set New Password. How can I change the password of that current user, my Set New Password Form has two fields which is 'txtSetPassword1' and 'txtSetPassword2' and an OK button.
The user must enter a new password and a verification password, if the 2 fields matched, the new password entered will change the password in the table. The table name is 'tbl_UsernamesQry'.
I have done it but the main problem is, it changes the other's users password not the current user.
Here is my code for the OK button of that form Set New Password:
Private Sub btnSetOk_Click()
If Me.txtSetPassword1.Value = Me.txtSetPassword2.Value Then
Me.txtSetPassword1.SetFocus
[Code].....

Password Issues With Non Protected Database Asking For Password
Nov 8, 2005Hi,
Firstly thank you for your help, this should be a simple one I hope, but is cracking my head on the wall. Have searched and searched and can't find an answer.
I have an Access Db that is not password protected, but is asking for a password.
It opens on any other machine fine?
I think my version of Access is playing funny buggers with me, any suggestions?
I was trying to implement some security on this Db, which is why it happened I'm sure. I ran the security wizard, set-up two users and admin with passwords, I have the output file to "recreate" something too.
Issue is, I then copied this Db to another computer for use on there, it worked without a Password, so didn't need to worry about it, now I can't open any Db on my machine??
Your help on this obvious pointer would be great!

Password
Jan 25, 2007I don't realy know how to explain this but a college of mine has done something to her Access settings, whenever she tries to open a database it asks her for a User login password.
The prompt is a box with
Name: Centre Manager
Password:
If she types Centre Manager in the password box then it lets her in as normal. Everyone else can just access the databases without being prompted for a password.
Does anyone know what she has done?

Password Setup
Jun 23, 2005I'm creating a data access page that can be used over the internet to add information into the database. The database is password protected. The functionality currently is that when a user accesses the data access page, they need the database password in order to submit information. We don't have a small number of users and giving all these people the password to the database would comprimise the security of the system.
I am looking for a functionality such that the people that edit the database, either by the front end application or by opening the database directly to be password protected. But the data access page not to be.
Any ideas on how I can achieve this functionality?

User ID & Password
Dec 16, 2005I have successfully created a user id & password prompt which works excellently.
The database i have created has three forms inwhich two departments access. I have an issue where one department is only allowed to view a search screen and the other department is allowed to enter in information and search. I also have a section for managers to login and run reports.
In my userid & password table i have created and field called Level which includes: Administrator, Manager, Bookings,User
Admin - Full Access
Managers - Full Access - But not able to edit queries and tables
Bookings - Order Form, Search Form
User - Search Form
Here is the code i have used:
Login OK Button:-
Private Sub login_Click()
If txtPassword.Value = DLookup("Password", "tblAccess", "[UserId] = txtUser.Value") Then
CheckFlag
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmUserLogon"
Else
MsgBox "INCORRECT PASSWORD! Please try again"
End If
End Sub
Module1:
Option Compare Database
Public Flag As Integer '1: Reports Opener 2:Log 3:OpenUKSupplier
Function CheckFlag()
Select Case Flag
Case 1
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmReports Menu"
Case 2
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmbooking"
Case 3
DoCmd.OpenForm "Frmsearch"
Case Else
'Should never be here
End Select
End Function
Where would i add the code to the module or to the event?
Retrieve My Db Password
Apr 10, 2006Hi,
I have secured my db with password. I want to know the technique/technology so that i can read my password. Access must be storing the password in an encrypted form in any password file. My idea is that if I know the file where its stored and in what form then I hope it can be retrieved.
I find so many available sites who claims that they have their product which is able to retrieve access db passowrd. I want to learn on how to do the same.
Any idea or suggestions is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Password Protection Help
Apr 12, 2006HI ALL,
I have been working on some database protection techniques and have found floors in all of them.
Basically I have to protect a database not using the application password... which has a different password for each form. This means using form passwords ect... but all of them can be hacked by using the shift key on start-up does anyone know how to get around this as im stuck and could really do with another’s perspective.
Thanks in advance.
Logon Password
May 8, 2007Every time I open up access I get a logon box which asks for the admin password. This applies to any database project I open. I for the life of me can't figure out how it was turned on, but it still has the generic password associated with it(thank god).
I am trying to rid myself of having to type it in every single time I open up a database project. I have tried to delete it in the security section of tools and it won't allow me to delete the admin.
This is incredibly annoying because neither of the database projects requires a password, and I am not even the one that created the projects. I am merely a user.
Any suggestions on how to rid myself of this annoying problem?

Password In Linked Db
Aug 29, 2007Hi,
I'm using Access 97. I have an Access application that consists of two databases, a front end witht he usual forms, reports, queries etc. and a back end with the data.
I use my own simple logon form to restrict access at the front end, but nothing on the back end.
I really want to restrict access to the back end by placing a password on the database.
How do I still allow people who use the front end to get into the system and access the data, yet prevent them from accessing the back end directly?
I have put the password on the back end easily enough, but when I try to use the front end I just get the message, 'Invalid Password'.
Regards,
Bernard D
Issues With Password
Nov 13, 2007Hi all,
I have created a database and rather than use a FE/BE for different users there is only myself who modifies and another set of users who run reports) I have set it up with a switchboard for me :) and a form I have designed for the reports. Now the way I have worked it is that I have an admin password for me and a user password for the others with their access restricted to the form I want them to see.
This works great on my pc and I have setup a shortcut to the form for the others to click into for ease of use. Using my PC this works spot on, but when I go on any other pc on the network they do not have to log on at all and just go straight into the DB with full access to everything.
Any ideas on how I can sort this?
(other than go around every pc in the place and put passwords on :()
Thanks in advance :)
Password Textbox
Nov 27, 2007Hello all!
My problem is the following:
My application needs a log in. Then I created a username and a password textbox. In the password textbox I applied an input mask to not display the password on the screen, and display the stars.
The problem comes when i try to read the value by code. I get the stars instead of what the user wrote.
What's the solution for it? I'm sure i'm missing something, and i should write a method to get the real value, but can't figure it out...
Thanks in advance
