How to replace microsoft access with something else?

Question

Microsoft Access

Hello.
There is a base akses 97 on a common ball.
How can it be protected from copying?
From ideas - to convert it into one or another local web server, for example, sharepoint, django and so on, but this is a lot of work.
Maybe there are some other ways to do this?

Answer 1

Step one is to separate logic and data.
The second step is to transfer the data not to the ball (from where you can copy it), but to the server.
Step three is to bind the logic to the new database.

Answer 2

I've been working in Access since about 1994. For about 10-15 years, such thoughts also creep in)))
But I still continue to use it.
The truth is not in such a volume The
question is what exactly you need to replace. What are you doing in it now?
