Using MS Access, how can you have it createa password and lockout after 3 times if entered incorrectly??

Question

The password would need to be minimum 8 characters and if entered wrong 3 times, how would I be able to lock it out.

Answer 1

One way is to create a counter variable. When the password is entered, the counter is advanced by one.

Then it's just a simple conditional statement to check it like:

If COUNTER >= 3 then
textboxPassword.enabled = false **
end if

**Or disable the button you click to enter the password instead of the password text box
