in the process of converting to Acc07. How do I after upgrading to Acc07 get rid of the workgroup and still keep the databases secure? Thanks If you want user-level security, you cannot convert to the new .accdb format
in Access 2007: you need to leave your application in .mdb format. -- Show quoteHide quoteDoug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no private e-mails, please) "dawnecia" <dawne***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E5180951-62A9-45F0-B555-552BA25111EF@microsoft.com... > My Acc03 databases are secured using workgroup (user level) security.

You
should see also the Replication Option there. If you don't see it, it is not a MDB format database. dawnecia wrote: Show quoteHide quote >Do you know where I can kind the code to do this? > >> Yes, although you'd need to do it through code, as I don't believe Access >> 2007 includes an interface to simplify it. >[quoted text clipped - 14 lines] >> >> > >> >> > Thanks -- Please Rate the posting if helps you.
