Directory permissions from VBA

E

Eric Dreksler

Hi all,

We have an Access2K3 app that runs in runtime on quite a few of our
employees. This program allows certain employees to view info on a drive a
limited number of times and logs their activities. Now the problem is that
several other employees have this drive mapped and have complete access to
the info (so do the other users, but they don't know it and don't know how
to map their own drives), due to some security concerns about sensitive info
leaking out they want all users blocked from this drive and to only be able
to access this info through the access app.

After all that my question is, is it possible to read (and add files but
not read for some employees) by getting into the directory through a user
account with permission to do this all through VBA code (basically user logs
into app and the app pulls the files to be viewed).

We're running WinSrvr 2003 (Active Directory) and Access2K3 runtime.

I hope I was clear enough, and Thanks In Advance,

Eric Dreksler
