Database Permissions (NTFS Permissions, really)

[mjn015]

Can anyone tell me what the ideal NTFS persmissions should be for users who are only inputting data to an Access database?

Would Read, Write, & Execute on the networked folder where the BE resides be enough for the users to update the database?

Thanks!

Regardless of what you want the user to be capable of the permissions on the folder must include everything, read,write,modify ,delete... a full set

This is because these rights are required so that the ldb file is correctly managed.

You must control users from within the database not via network permissions

I've found some places on this forum to start my research on this. Thanks for your help, Len!
