Ms Access prevent queries from being exported

I don't think you can do this with .accdb files. The older .mdb format allowed you to implement User Level Security, and you could remove certain permissions that would handle situations like this, but with .accdb files that's not available.

You could add a Database Password to the file, and a user would need to know that password in order to open the database. Many times the developer will use a "launcher" application to open their password-protected database. The "launcher" app can be another access database the user opens, and then the launcher will actually open the password-protected database. This way, the user doesn't need to know the password:

Dim acc As Access.Application
Set acc = New Access.Application
acc.Visible = True

Dim dbs as DAO.Database
Set dbs = acc.DBEngine.OpenDatabase("full path to your database", False, False, "PWD=YourPassword")
acc.OpenCurrentDatabase "full path to your database"

dbs.Close
Set dbs = Nothing

Select allOpen in new window

Code poached from here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/235422

So your user would open the "launcher" app, and then the "launcher" app would run the code above to open your database. You could do this in the Open or Load event of a form to do things in an automated manner, or you could do this in the Click event of a button.

My guess is that what Scott posted will get you what you want,

You also need to ultimately consider your need for this.

Are you just trying t stop a casual user from clicking "Export"
Or are you trying to "Harden" the data from a determined hacker...
...or some other scenario?

The general rule is that "if they can see it, they can steal it.
 vba automation, SQL Insert queries, Screeenshots, screenscrapers, copy/paste, cameras, even brute force memorization are all possible at some level,

"Is there a way to prevent the query and table objects from being exported? "
Well, if a user is already "in" the database, then they can use any number of technique to export it out...

I may have misunderstood your question here, so these are just some other things to consider.
