Design Master securityHaven't been able to find an answer to thhis in the literature. If I
replicate a database, can anyone else modify the design master? So far I haven't been able to figure out how to asign permission for this. Anyone else opening the design master sees it as a replica. Thanks for the help! Being a master doesn't really matter; you can assign permissions just like a
regular mdb. It sounds to me as though others are not opening the master, but a replica instead. Is the database secured or not? -- Show quoteHide quoteJoan Wild Microsoft Access MVP sturner333 wrote: > Haven't been able to find an answer to thhis in the literature.

You say they are on a laptop; how are they opening the master? Is the master on the network? Do they have full permissions on the folder where the master is located? Have they used briefcase in some way to open the master? -- Show quoteHide quoteJoan Wild Microsoft Access MVP sturner333 wrote: >> Being a master doesn't really matter; you can assign permissions >> just like a regular mdb. > > Doesn't the current user need to see it as a master to make changes? > >> >> It sounds to me as though others are not opening the master, but a >> replica instead. > > The other laptop is opening the master.
