I found it under http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AccessDevelopers/files/Demos%20%26%20Sample%20Files/AccessLoginsDBs.zip

 

This may need tweaking but works and is in the db not the System.MDW file.

How do you have it secured? Your own code or Access User permissions.

User permissions utilizes a MDW file on the local machine unless otherwise directed, if the file is not there then the db might not be secured.

If you are using SQL as the backend then what security is being used there SQL or NT?

Access always calls the system.mdw file located in the root dir. If you set the permissions on your machine then move it those permissions don’t move to the new machine.

I find it is best to create a self contained user permissions table as well as a log in form.

Someone has a sample up for download somewhere I just don’t remember where.

Are you having the users go through the MDW file?

Hi all. Thanks for the help on the counting days question now I have
another.

I have created users for my DB and am ready for folks to try it out.
The problem is when they open the program on their computers (the file
is in a shared network drive) they are not prompted for user name and
password. When I open it on my computer it works just fine. Is there
something else I have to do in order for the users to be prompted?

Thanks!!
