You're going to have to query SOMETHING to find out if the user has access.
It makes more sense to query the database than to duplicate your data
somewhere else, and query that. That's the whole rationale behind relational
databases - reduced data duplication and less maintenance - You'll have to
update TWO databases rather than just one if you don't query the original
database.

access to database, but I don't want to query any tables in the database to
do this.

Just try to run a simple select on the database using the credentials
supplied, and check any errors (if generated).

Hi

I have a database in access mdb file. In Excel I created a userform where
user inputs a username and password. What's the best way to check if the
given credentials are correct - in VBA of course?

Kind regards
