'connection to secure database
Dim Cnn As ADODB.Connection
Dim Rst As ADODB.Recordset

'In the place where you want to establish your connection, such
'as the Initialize event of a class module, enter the following:

Dim strConnect As String
Set Cnn = New ADODB.Connection

'Substitute your own User IDs, Password, Data Source, and System
'database in the connection string below
strConnect = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Password=MyPassword;User ID=Administrator;" & _
"Data Source=C:\AccessDBs\DB1.mdb;" & _
"Persist Security Info=True;" & _
"Jet OLEDB:System database=C:\AccessDBs\system.mdw"

With Cnn
.CursorLocation = adUseClient
.Open strConnect
End With

Set Rst = New ADODB.Recordset
Rst.ActiveConnection = Cnn
