To lock your database you first need to open the database as Exclusive. To do this:
1. Close the database.
2. Select File/Open and select the database to open.
3. Click the Arrow on the Open button and select Open Exclusive
Now
1. Open the Tools menu
2. Select Security/Set Database password
3. Set the password as instructed

RE: Access
Thanks Carlos. I also need to be able to have our administrator be in the database adding to the form, but not allow her to be able to change anything or view things in design view. Does this work for that??

No This locks and opens the whole database, not jost parts.
What you want is User Groups and Permissions levels, but for this you need Administrator access to the network so have a chat to your IT department to set it up.
