No exclusive accessIf I set up a startup form for a database and then open the database as a
user without admin permissions then the startup form opens and dozens messages appear saying that the user does not have exclusive access to the database. If there is no startup form or if the user bypasses the startup settings using a Shift key and then opens the form from the database window, then everything works fine. What may be a problem here? Thanks. Is it 31 times? If so, this is caused by Adobe version 7.
Control Panel, Add/remove programs, find Adobe, click Modify -> create Adobe PDF. Expand to Acrobat PDF Maker and expand to locate Access; deselect the add-in for Access. -- Show quoteHide quoteJoan Wild Microsoft Access MVP Vik wrote: > If I set up a startup form for a database and then open the database > as a user without admin permissions then the startup form opens and > dozens messages appear saying that the user does not have exclusive > access to the database. > > If there is no startup form or if the user bypasses the startup > settings using a Shift key and then opens the form from the database > window, then everything works fine. > > What may be a problem here? > > Thanks. Exactly - 31 times. And I had 31 forms in this db so I supposed something
was wrong with the forms. However, after I deleted half of the forms it was still 31 times. Thanks.

a custom one. Then Adobe tries to add its menu to this custom menu and requires exclusive access for this operation. If there is no custom menu then Adobe adds its menu to the built-in menu and does not require exclusive access. The problem is that even when the application does not close the built-in menu bar and only opens its the custom menu in addition to the built-in menu, then Adobe still tries to add its menu to the custom one, not to the built-in menu, and still requires exclusive access. Maybe there is a way to make Adobe use the built-in Access menu?

The only workaround
at this point is to remove the addin for Access. Let us know if they have anything to say about it. -- Show quoteHide quoteJoan Wild Microsoft Access MVP Vik wrote: > > Maybe there is a way to make Adobe use the built-in Access menu? > > Viktor
