If this is a .mdb file in A2003 or earlier, you can use Workgroup Security.

Microsoft Access 2000 Security FAQ:

If it's 2007 and a .accdb file, password security is not supported. You should
split the database into a frontend and backend
(http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/splitapp.html) and just give the staff a copy
of the frontend.
