How can i understand to which Workgroup is my Database connected.....
 
There would be three ways.

1) Using the Workgroup Administrator (Wrkgrp.exe) see which workgroup you are currently joined to. This is your default workgroup and will be used always which you do not expressly state which workgroup to use.

2) If you use an icon to startup your database right click on the icon, go to properties, and look in the 'target'. If there is a /wrkgrp followed by a filename with .mdw then that is the workgroup you are using.

3) Open a module in design view and use the immediate window to enter the following:

?syscmd(acSysCmdGetWorkgroupFile)
C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\SCKING\APPLICATION DATA\MICROSOFT\ACCESS\SYSTEM.MDW

Try to resolve problems independently
Then seek help among peers or experts
But TEST recommended solutions

There was command in the immediate window,that gives me the current Workgroup of the database.
But you don't need to enter the place where the *.mdw file is placed...
What was the command....

Help!
