	I have an Access (v7) database which I talk to via a VB4 program. For security the database is password protected only. I realise that this is less secure than securing the database via setting group/user rights and removing the Admin user etc. What I would like to do is allow users to change the db password from within the program. The method NewPassword allows users on a fully secured db to change their user password but I can't find a way to allow them to change the db password. Is this possible? Cheers, Brian
