 Accessing a Password Protected Access DB

Hello:

I am writting a program in VB5 that uses the Data Control to load data from
an Access 97 db.  I do not want the user to be able to edit the database
directly in Access so I figured I could make the DB password protected and
the program would "know" the password.  However, I cannot find a way to
specify the db password using the datacontrol.  How can this be done?

Thanks,
Frank
