I'm trying to set up access on a network where multiple users will use the
file at the same time. I've already split the database into the backend (on
the shared) and the front end (which I load onto the users). I'd like to use
the security function to control which individuals can edit. I haven't had
any luck with this.

So far, the security prompts and works from my workstation, but doesn't
prompt for any other workstations. Do I need to join the workgroup on each
individuals workstation? This would make it difficult, because the
individuals are spread apart over hundreds of miles, and I don't want to give
them access to the security.
