Terry, Sean, whoever,
I have read everything you sent me to and I tried Sean's approach on the shortcut. Nothing is working!! Do I need to go to each machine and set up the secuirty and ask IT to let me know if they do any reinstalls on access at any of these machines?
Daleen Our IT cannot...
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. Will learning a programming language help with any of these problems? I don't think so, but sometimes vocabulary is used that would be understood if I had that background. If I end up being able to add this security through the shortcut, doesn't it still...
Has anyone out there put a database on a network, used access security to secure and not had to go to each machine and set the security? I do have network security, but i don't want anyone to get to my designs and tables.
Is anyone around? I went back to the FAQ that Terry told me about and used what Sean had told me together. Since I could not find my .mdw file at home, I used what the FAQ said about starting the Wrkgadm.exe and made a new file. I thought I saved this file in the folder of my database with...
Terry,
I have printed that FAQ and wish I had started there before I even touched my security, but I did not and am now trying to fix things. Also wish I had just used the wizard. I would still like to know why the security wizard would not work after I tried a few things.

Sean,
There are several .MDW files on my C drive for this database or similar ones that I've been 'playing'with. So I think I need to start from scratch with a new .MDW. I am home and will head to work to look for any .MDW files I have on my C drive at work. I assume the .MDW file needs to go...
Sean,
I want the security to be on one Access Database that is placed on the server/network. There will be about 10 computers using this database + I will be replicating to two sites off campus and synchronizing weekly. I tried to use the security wizard as a last resort and at the end it...
Sean,
No, I don't know the name. How do I find a security file? How do I create a new .mdw file? Can I create a new one if I cannot find it? Can I replicate a secured Access database?
Daleen
Uncle Jack,
How do I delete all the security stuff I have previously put on and use the wizard? Do I have to start with a new database? How do I delete the default security I placed on my machine that I don't want? Will this wizard work on a network? I tried using the security wizard after i...
I designed a database at home and emailed it to work. At home I put security on it with User level, not with the wizard. I then put it on an NT server. There is NO security on it now, except at my machine. Everyone who has access to that folder can do anything they please. Yes, I obviously...
Thanks. Actually, I did grow up with floppies and do realize the magnetic thing, so am very careful that way. Is it the same for Zips? Have never really heard how bad that is. I've never attached a db to an email before. Are there any specific problems you might run into or any special way...
After attempting to compact a database on a 3.5 to take back to office, a 'not enough room' message appeared and I clicked okay. Later, I cannot get into the form and the message is 'operation canceled by user.' I cannot even open up design view. Is there a way to open this form and get rid...
I've set up a day and time database that tracks when employees come to work by said employees choosing their name and clicking in, then clicking out when they leave. Works great! However, we track about 50 employees meeting with about 600 students on an hourly basis. I take time sheets and...
