Re: User Permissions



I hope that you have followed the necessary steps to secure your database.
You don't just go into the security menu and start adding users/groups.

Setting a password for the Admin user is what causes the login dialog to
appear. Please explain what you mean by 'database had a hissyfit'.

You need to set a password for the Admin user to get the login back.

Start your database using the secure workgroup file you created (you did
this, right?). You'll get no login, but you'll be using the correct
workgroup file. Go to Tools, Security, Accounts and click on Change
Password tab - set a password for this user (which should be Admin).

I have been working on creating a database for work. I have all the
designstuff done that I wanted. Now I am trying to set the security
features. I have created the User groups, users, and set the
permissions. However when I set the Admin password my database had a
hissyfit. However when I removed the Admin password the login popup
disappeared? How can I get the login back and set passwords for each
user? Or can I?
