Thanks Alex, all though I disagree.Been doing this for a long time and there are software programs that secure far more valuable data WITH recover options. But, I appreciate your help, will review the security seminars when time permits.

Have you tried toggling CAPS just in case it was on when you put the password in?

Depending on the reason for the password it might be better storing the data in a SQL Server etc as it's more secure and options to reset passwords.
Still use Access as the FE though
