You could always just encrypt the data itself. encrypting each field might take time, but then someone would have to know how to decrypt it to view the data.

: I have a VB application which links to an SQL 6.5 datasource, the data is of a sensitive nature and only certain people should access this data, I have passwords with the VB application however a Database Administrator can come along and view the data directly throught SQL, is there any way I can get around this problem, whilst still allowing the administrator to do their job.
