I have a secure db and am trying to use Mail Merge. Each time I try to connect, I get the same error:
"You do not have the necessary permissions to use [the db (.mdb)] object. Have your system administrator or the person who created this object establish the appropriate permissions for you."
I am the admin. I have tried inputting my UN/PW to no avail. I created a read only account with blank PW...still no dice. I tried using the ODBC Administrator to create a .dsn file, but I make it through the wizard and it tells me the file has not been saved.
It worked fine before I secured it. I imagine it has to do with the workgroup file, but am not sure. Does not work even when the db is open. Don't really want to try a VBA solution because I have multiple Mal Merge documents I would like to use. Any ideas??
Thank you in advance for your time and help.
