User Level security Wizard on shared Drive 1

The shortcut created with the User Level Security Wizard on the desktop works fine on a local drive but gives errors on a shared drive.

How do I proceed

I suspect that you modified your System.mdw file.

For each database I create, I create a new .mdw file and store that .mdw file on a server. All users' shortcuts to my database include the /wrkgrp option to the .mdw file. The shortcut property looks something like this:

"\\path\msaccess.exe" "\\path\YourFE.mdb" /wrkgrp "\\path\YourWorkgroupFile.mdw

Thanks. The icon property to my database now looks like this and it works:
"\\path\MSACCESS.EXE" /WRKGRP "\\path\xxx.mdw" "\\path\xxx.mdb
