Hi There

I have a client who is struggline with an access database and I have to
admit I am being very lazy as I have a deadline to meet by the end of today
and don't have time to look into it.  I was wondering if any of you experts
could provide with a quick tip!

"We've managed to create a database, user groups and user accounts and have
no trouble with logging into the database from my pc, but when anyone else
tries to log onto the database from their pc with their user names it is
saying that they are invalid??  The database is on our server that everyone
has access to."

Hope someone can help and so sorry to be a nuisance

At a guess, "their names" are not in the workgroup information file.  You
have to log on using a valid account name and not a network logon ID.
