I am trying to access an Access 2000 DB with ADO that is restricted by a Security file. No matter what I do I can't Open the DB. If I create a DSN it works, but then when the Queries in that DB (which I am referencing in my SQL string) access table/queries in another DB I hit the same wall again. How do I establish a connection to a secured DB and how can I get Jet to stop giving me exclusive access errors?
