Password Protect an Access 2000 Form Using VB

Hi, all:

I noticed there were a few threads about this topic, but I'm still
having trouble. I'm a tech writer with limited VB experience, so
please excuse the elementary nature of this post.

I want to password protect one form (the form dedicated to data entry)
on a very simple, "Rolodex"-type database. Security does not need to be
very heavy given the nature of the database (internal, data is
basically a document listing), and so I thought the instructions given
from Microsoft
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us:209871) would
suffice, as opposed to implementing user levels through Access.

I constantly get the "...cannot find password information.." message
box, regardless of what I enter in the text box. I've tried generating
new Key Codes and entering those in the password table, and even
removed the password input mask to make sure I wasn't mis-typing the
data. I've double-, triple-, and quadruple-checked my code for errors.
The code instructions work when I use the Northwind sample database,
but not mine. Are there settings or instructions that I'm missing?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Best,
Achez
