I have a group of individuals that share serveral PCs. These PCs presently use a common service account login (domain\svc_xxx). I plan to place a MS Access thin-client front-end on these shared PCs; and link to SQL Server 2008.

Only issue is that DBA Team will not permit use of service account login (domain\svc_xxx) or Standard SQL Server Logins. Only actual user login is permitted, for example domain\smed. UGH!

Can I write an ADO connection string that can force the User Id and then use trusted? Basically, attempting to overwrite/substitute one network login for another...

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
