Each user has a copy on thier own hard drive. For example: Joe, who works
in
supply, has the supply db front end on his c: drive, as well as mike on
his.
Both work in supply. Joe can log into his account under his name. Mike
can
not. Originally, on his first log in, Mike logged in using the wrong user
id.
One that did not exist in the user group.

Now every time Mike tries to log
in, he gets the same
default messege, "Could not log on 'Admin' is in use."

This holds true for the other two users, who work with different front
ends,
who also looged in with the wrong user id.

Any suggegestions for a quick fix? The hard part is, they don't even get
a
chance to log in at all anymore. It just goes to the error messege. What
to
do?

Thanks in advance.
Jerrod

Hi Jerrod.

Mike must have used a valid account name, albeit the wrong one, to get in
at all. To secure your app properly you should deny access to all objects
to the "Admin" user account and you should create your own custom
administrator account. The securing process is documented in the MS FAQ -
there's a link on my web site along with my own step-by-step example. You
can also search this group for Jeff Conrad and Joan Wild, both of whom
have great web sites with lots of useful security information.
