Why security from only one computer?
Hi - I have a multiuser database (Access 2000) with some custom security checks built into the coding, as the Access permissions were a bit too generalized for our needs. A single copy of the database exists on a shared drive. We relied on our Network security to ensure only the appropriate users could get into the db to begin with. Now, the client wishes to place the application on...

Password on database - allow users to open front-end w/o password
Help. I've got everything setup the way I want where the users are locked out of everything and all menus when they open the application. They cannot get to the database unless they know the bypass (Shift) on open. I went to put a password on the database thinking that would prevent the users from being able to access the tables, forms etc. should they happen to know the bypass, but n...

User able to bypass security
Hi, Does the WIF I'm currently joined to matter when creating a new WIF? I'm in the process of studying/testing the security features in Access (using 2003). Myself and two collegues share a network drive for our department. I opened my (test)database, set-up the Workgroup Info File with the user Admin out of the Admins group and only myself in the Admins group and gave no permissions...

Secured Shortcut & Citrix
I have a secured shortcut on my laptop (desktop), but while in VPN mode and using Citrix, you can't just double click the shortcut. You have to go to the Citrix neighborhood, Microsoft applications, and then to Access. However, just opening the shortcut in this manner doesn't work. How can I get this secured shortcut to work in the Citrix neighborhood. Thanks....

Making mdb read-only after appending tables
Hi, I have created an Access mdb(2003) through VB6 code using ADOX (2.8). All tables in this db are being populated through code in the front end. (Data for this is coming from flat files.) The mdb has to be deleted after processing is finished. I am able to open the db and modify data even as the program is running. I need to find a way to prevent a user from opening and modifying it. ...

Security changes when opening different databases
I have an application with linked tables. The main application has it's own workgroup file. I wanted to distribute an update database that would contain a new set of tables and some additional fields. I created a utility database that imports all the tables, modifies them, creates a new database called "Updated Tables" and exports all the modified tables from my utility to "Updated ...

Access 2003 logon question
about a week ago, I was opening various databases and suddenly began getting a logon window asking for a password. None of the passwords I would normally use worked. I uninstalled Office 2003, ran the registry cleaner with Norton System Works, and reinstalled Office 2003. Still the problem. I'm unable to use my Access for anything, since this window pops up for any database I try to open...

It appears that I have achieved this successfully through various steps of removing restrictions, new System.mdw file and copying all projects into a new blank database. I can now edit forms, queri...

How/Can you establish security logins from a menu button?
I have a complex database with multiple tables which has been primarily used by myself. Now the database needs to be accessed by other departments. The database when opened displays a main menu. From the main menu you can then select which type of form to access (i.e. employees, non-employees, etc.). Is it possible to put security on the menu options so to only allow access to specif...

I ran the ULS security wizard, added a bunch of new users / groups, removed all authorites from the Admin account / User group. Works just as I expected when I go through the shortcut. If I try to open it direct it won't open (good). But when someone else on the network opens the .mdw file it opens no problem with full permissions under the admin acct. How do I stop this? ...
