users over networkHi all,
I have currently set security (users and privileges) on my mdb and all is running well on my PC. however another user accesing the same mdb over the network cannot even attempt a logon, before getting an error message. The security.mdw file is in the same network folder as the mdb file. How do I change this so other users on the network can have the same security as my own machine? thanks in advance, "aaron b" <aaron b@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message You and your users should stay joined to the default "system.mdw" workgroup news:C37EC1D4-AF4B-47F5-BA46-ADEB10371E7D@microsoft.com... > Hi all, > I have currently set security (users and privileges) on my mdb and all is > running well on my PC. however another user accesing the same mdb over the > network cannot even attempt a logon, before getting an error message.

Keith. www.keithwilby.com In addition to Keith's advice, make sure that your mdw file does not have the same name as the mdb. Each needs to create their own ldb.
