I've used the security wizard for the first time as a trial to learn about it -- and I have some learning to do! The end result is this error message when I try to open the secured version:
You do not have the necessary permissions to use the *:/*.mdb object. Have your system administrator or the person who created the object establish the appropriate permissions for you.
I've been able to recoup my database by opening the unsecured backup copy created by the wizard, so I'm not out any work or time. I would like to understand what the problem is here, though, for future use.
I have the secured.mdw file in which I am shown as a user belonging only to Admins with full permissions and as a member (the only member) of the group admins.
I created the DB in my personal network drive; therefore I am the owner, but unfortunately have no idea what is wrong here or how to fix it.
I've reviewed the MS FAQs, the help files, and my available text, but am not finding anything that describes my situation. Any other suggestions?
