Working with Project Properties
Every database project has user-definable properties. These include the following:
- The project name
- A description of the project
- The name of the help file associated with the project
- The help context ID associated with the project
- Conditional compilation arguments
- A password associated with the project
To view or modify project properties:
Figure 12.8. The Project Properties dialog box.

The Protection option deserves special attention. If you click to select Lock Project for Viewing, the VBA project cannot be viewed or edited by someone who does not have the correct password. If you do not select Lock Project for Viewing, anyone can view the VBA project, but only someone with the correct password can change the project properties.
