Instead of opening the file directly, it's best to use a shortcut that includes the new path to the workgroup file and the database file, like this (it's all one line): "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE10\MSACCESS.EXE" \\Server\IMDB\ Database.mdb /wrkgrp \\Server\IMDB\Secure.MDW Thanks, but I don't really follow you. If i didn't put a lot of time into a

I take it you've designed a form in another database to open the secureddatabase, which is now located on the network, right? If so, how are you opening the secured database? With a hyperlink on your form? -- Message posted via AccessMonster.com http://www.accessmonster.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/access-security/200609/1 |
