Hi.

I'm the owner in every object in my database (table,query,report,
form,macro and also database itselft), but I can't add users. What is
the matter with my system.mdw?

Hi this is how I do it and it works.

1) Log on as admin

2) Tools --> Security --> User-Level Security Wizard

3) Choose Modify my current workgroup information file --> Next

4) click Next

5) click next – do not chose/mark any groups!

6) choose â€No, the users group....†--> clik Next

7) Clik on â€<Add new User>†so it turns black --> Type Username --> Type
Password --> Type if you want the PID --> click the button â€Add this user to
the list†--> Click Finish and NOT the next button – very important!!!

8)
Close the report by clicking on the red cross then you will get a warning -
you just click "YES" to that. Now comes a security wizard report, which you
can choose to print out or you can just close it.

9) Open Tools --> Security --> User and Group Accounts

10) In the combobox you choose the user and in â€Available Groups†you
choose the group he/she belong to and click on Add --> OK

Please tell if it worked for you?

Good luck!

Hi!

Modify my current workgroup information file is unactive, so I can't
choose it!

OK, you are the Admin user. Everybody is Admin unless you set up user level
security identities. Is the Admin user in the Admins group? Users and
groups are different.
Are you in the Admins group?

Yes I'm Admin.
