make read onlyNew at this,I am using Microsoft access 97, I have read all the security
tutorials and am still confused. What I would like to do is have the database read only for all users except for the admin. who will be able to make changes. I would like to do this without any passwords. Any suggestions Thanks You can set up security so that no login is required, since you really have
only two groups (you as administrator, and everyone else). See http://www.jmwild.com/SecureNoLogin.htm for step by step. -- Show quoteHide quoteJoan Wild Microsoft Access MVP mwest wrote: > New at this,I am using Microsoft access 97, I have read all the > security tutorials and am still confused.
