MDE over terminal Server 2003

[sami4net]

I have MDE file on win 2003 server , i install Terminal Server and i tried to assign MDE file to open when user login but it's didn't work.

What is the configuration parameter for TS environment?

When each user logs on they have their own profile. You then need to create a separate mde file on the Terminal Server for each user map the directory for the BE data. You can hold the MDE either in User/Database or I perfer C:/Database/User. Then using the Quick Launch create a shortcut to the respective MDE file.

Under the Active Directory users, go to the properties of a user, then the Enviroment tab and tick 'Start the following program at log on', then specify the shortcut link underneath. This automatically starts the db when they log in and avoids them getting to a desktop on the terminal server even if they close the db.
