Access Security on the Network

[Len O]

Why is my security access (user/workgroups) only
applicable to my pc? When other workstations access my MS
Access DB on the network, the security privileges I've
implemented is not recognized by their workstation. How
can I best set-up security for an Access db on the NT that
would enable all users to log-on with the username and
password assigned to them????Please advise...

Create a shortcut that points to your secure workgroup information file. the
basic syntax is:

"FullPathToMSAccess.exe" "FullPathToYourDB.mdb" /wrkgrp
"FullPathToSecure.mdw"

Hi!

I would like to make logon form where each user could use its own username
and password. Is it possible?
Where are usernames and passwords stored? How to compare entered password
with stored one?

Thanks in advance!

Get a copy of the Security FAQ from Microsoft, read it thoroughly (several
times), and then follow it to the letter. There is a link to the document on
the Security page of my website.
