My Boss and the CFO of our company create databases for the various departments to use. The problem is that any database they create cannot be used by anyone but the admin group. My boss has 2 different machines with identical permissions and log on information but on one machine the databases he creates can be viewed and used by anyone in the company unless he sets permissions for the different groups, while the other machine and the CFO's machine can create databases only for the admin group. These permissions cannot be changed for some reason. They and I have searched through Access help files and user FAQs and cannot find what is different with my boss's machine that allows users to actually use the databases. Anyone with an Idea? The boss's machines are running Windows 2000 Professional and Office 97 Pro with all service packs. Some users running same set-up and others running Win 98SE.
