    Splitting Database with Workgroup Security

    Just wondering if there's anything I should know ahead of time about splitting a database that has Workgroup security (i.e. is accessed via a shortcut through secured.mdw) already deployed. Is there anything special I should do/pay attention to? Thanks again!:)

    Safest way to working on live databases

    How do I accomplish this with a secured database (shortcut points to secured.mdw)? BTW - thanks for all your help yesterday. I ended up going with the Microsoft solution because it was 2002 compliant without the DAO installations. It does the same trick, and is only dependent on an external...

    Backing up with a batch file

    Autoeng, Also - would it have anything to do with me using OfficeXP (2002) Service Pack 2? Just thought I'd throw that out there. Everything in the database has worked very fluidly, except for this code. But I noticed it was meant for 2000, would that be the problem? Thanks again

    Time out

    Autoeng, I'm getting compile errors with the lines that have set DAO code as well as the "set snp = db." lines Do I need an extra module to make the LogOff code work? It looks like it would work fine (and the demo code works fine), but when I cut and paste it into my app, I'm having issues...

    I have a listbox running a query of data, that is then used to select the records displayed on the form. I.e. First name, last name, Sport, etc.. When it's clicked on, the form moves to that ID and displays the appropriate data. I want to be able to put buttons on the side of the list box...
