I doubt if there is a proper answer to that Q.<br />
Access encryption is pretty meaningless anyway. &nbsp;It only protects the data against it being looked at in something other than Access. &nbsp;Any copy of Access will see the data in clear form.

Thanks. &nbsp;I figured that was the case. &nbsp;Still though, I would like to know the bit-level that Access uses for encryption. &nbsp;Even though the data can be viewed by others with Access and even if it is a weak bit-level, I'm thinking that it must still use some bit level. &nbsp;Any thoughts on that?

Thanks. &nbsp;That response was good enough to give me a little more google fuel to go on. &nbsp;I found out that it is 32 bit encryption. &nbsp;Your other points were also reinforced.<br />
<br />
Thanks again.

What level of encryption does MS Access use?

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.
