Subform not displaying data, think it's a permissions issue

Hello community,

I have secured Access DB. All users are in one of 2 groups, "Admins" or "Full Data Users" I am in the Admins group.

I have a form that contains a subform. I have re-worked the query that is the source of the subform to improve efficiency. When I open the form from my login, (Admins group) I can see the data in the subform displayed correctly. When my users open the form, (Full Data Users group) the subform is blank. I have tried manually adding permissions to the form, subform, and query to give the members of the non-admins group the same permissions as I have, but this does not seem to make a difference.

When "Full Data Users" log into the DB,there are some restrictions applied to them so that the system is protected (disabling shift key, hiding the DB window, etc.) However, I can't see any restriction that I place on that group that would cause the data in the subform to not be displayed.

Any ideas on what I could check, or is there something I missed?

Thanks!

I'd try to use WITH OWNERACCESS OPTION in the SQL code of the relevant query.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks PHV, but that didn't change anything.

Is it possible that this is something that could be resolved from a decompile / recompile of the app?
