    Assign primarykey after maketable query

    Bsman Thanks again for your reply. What you describe is exactly what I have been doing. Because I am deleting and copying/pasting to an existing table, the PK remains the same (Acct#). What I am trying to do is NOT have to delete and paste, but just import new table (or create new table...

    Assign primarykey after maketable query

    I am trying to figure out how to assign a primary key using code, after running a Make Table query or importing a new table. The query runs everyday to refresh a table but, because it always deletes the old table, it looses the primary key. As alternative, I have been using Delete Table and...

    check box

    How do I keep users from opening up the db directly from the server?

    Use workgroups and Access security to limit access to DB to only those with proper security clearance. Volumes have been written on managing this process. Start with "workgroup" search in Access help. You can design your own workgroup and get rid of the default admin which would...

    Security: Form to manage users and permissions

    Foolio12 Thanks for your reply, and to a certain extent I agree. Why try to reinvent the wheel. Several reasons: 1. Don't want to expose the DBA (in this case the Dept manager who wants to control the users) to too much complexity or detail. Form could be designed to be much more user...
