Non-Adminstrators Recieve Read Only Message when opening ADE proje

[JJ]

I developed a Access 2003 project with MSSQL back end. I made a ADE file to
remove the code on the copy that is distributed to client workstations.
Users who are not administrators on the local machine receive an message when
opening the ADE file:

"The Microsoft OfficeAccess project will be opened read-only because one of
the following occurred:

The file is locked for editing by another user, or the file (or the folder
in which it is located) is marked as read-only, or you specified that you
wanted to open this file read-only"

I am hoping Microsoft does not require users to be administrators of the
local machine to use a local copy of a access 2003 project .

Any help would be appreciated.

I would assume that you're having multiple people open the same
frontend.

I dont' think that it is necessary to move the ADP to _EACH_ desktop.
I usually just have one copy of the ADP for each user in a folder..
and I send them a shortcut called Application.ade that points to
Application_Susie.ade
