Logon doesn't appear when running under Access Runtime 2003 AB 14.07.2006 18:10:02 We have packaged an Access file to run via Access 2003 runtime, using the Package Wizard. We used to use an MDA file to control permissions within the database, but have since changed to an MDW file. The resulting exe file runs normally on a computer with Access 2003 installed, but when I run it on a computer using the Access 2003 runtime and office 97 installed, the Logon dialog box does NOT appear and it gives the user access to everything. Did I miss something in the setup?

I suspect that you forgot to remove the default Admin Id from the Admins group. I'd advise downloading the Security FAQ from http://support.microsoft.com/?id=207793, reading it carefully a couple of times, and reapplying security, making sure you don't leave out any steps. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no e-mails, please!)
