VBA Backdoor

geez..it's been a year an a half since i posted...anything new round here?? :)

Spent most of the time programming Access apps..(condolences can be sent directly to me)

A question from a colleague regarding the VBA Backdoor "feature" that abounds on the net in the guise of password recovery tools

He's concerned about hardening his app and is concerned that this "feature" will make his security precautions irrelevant

anyone know the specific mechanics of this "feature"....just another m$ exploit?...undocumented backdoor...or what...any ways to prevent it?

tia

You mean something like this

thanks for the google tip...never would of thought of that :P

i know it's available...i want to know if it's preventable...or at least the mechanics of how it works...
