Any help would be appreciated Ryan "Ryis" <R***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message There'd be no logic to protecting your BE if you could then just connect to news:AE6650E6-7B14-4BD4-800A-137D610D246B@microsoft.com... > Hi everybody, > > I have a FE & BE system in access 2007, I would like to protect the BE > from > ever being opened but still link from the FE to the BE..can this be done?? > I > tried to protect the BE but then I cannot connect to it. > > Any help would be appreciated > it from another file. What you need to do is connect to it whilst joined to your custom workgroup. Keith. www.keithwilby.co.uk Not sure how to do this. Right now i am setting up the server to connect on
windows logon with permissionn rights. Is this the same as you are talking about. My users can only connect when they have logged into windows with the right credentials from within our vpn "Ryis" <R***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message When you apply ULS you join a custom workgroup using a custom *.mdw file. news:ED54B712-EDC7-4D5A-9590-2CE86AB40201@microsoft.com... > Not sure how to do this.

I thought... unless he was using Access 2007 which is no longer available in 2007. Only using Access 2003 or lower with 2007 can you have the benefit of a workgroup file.

A2K7 can make an MDB without any difficulty. It is only when you make an ACCDB that you cannot use ULS. David,
