I've made a shortcut from the desktop to join a secure workgroup and start
Access for only one session. However, when checking the current workgroup, I
see that I still joined the standard and insecure system.mdw.
My shortcut looks like this:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\MSACCESS.EXE" /WRKGRP
G:\Data\Access\SecureGroup.mdw
Did I do something wrong? Or is it correct what I did, and do I see the
standard workgroup because my shortcut only joins the secure workgroup for
one session?
Bingo. The shortcut doesn't change your default workgroup, it just overrides it and uses the target specified one for that session. Tools, Workgroup Administrator will always show you what your default is set to.
If you want to confirm the workgroup currently in use, open via your shortcut, hit Ctrl-G and type the following in the immediate window
?DBEngine.SystemDB
