     Hello,
     
     I am not sure if this is the right group to ask, if not,
     could you tell me which group I should ask this question?
     
     I have access database configured to use linked tables
     with sql server database.
     We haven't created any workgroups, so it doesn't ask for
     any userid/pwd upon logon. However, when I run the form,
     it asks for userid/pwd to validate against sql server
     database. Now I would like to retain this sql server
     userid/pwd for future use in my other forms.
     
     My question is -
     1. Upon logon it should ask for userid/pwd to validate
     against sql server.
     2. Upon successful logon, I would like to retain this
     userid/pwd how can I do so?
     
     Thanks in advance,
     -Tina.
     
     
I used to have Access linked to a SQL server, and it used ODBC links to get the necessary tables. These ODBC links were set up from Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Data Sources. These links used the SQL server's security when you pull data into Access. But Access only promted me once when i started using the database, and it allowed my continuous "access" to the linked data from that point on, as long as i did not leave Access. However, the next time I opened this database and wanted to pull data again, i would log in again.
Does that help?
Tim
