I have a Database I created on Sql Server and I have created a User Login: FinancialAnalytics with Password: Finance.
I want to be able to link Access to this Database and distribute to 10 or 15 people. I want everyone to use the same Login and Password mentioned above to access the data. Below is code I thought I could use but setting the parameter Trusted_Connection=No that it would prompt the user for a Login and password but it didn't work. If I refresh from my desk windows pops up a SQL Server Login Box but when one of the other 10 people tries it it doesn't work.

Code:
Function RefreshTableLinks() As Boolean
Dim tbl As TableDef
'Refresh the ODBC links to the SQL Server tables.
On Error GoTo err_RefreshTableLinks
CurrentDb.QueryTimeout = 60
Screen.MousePointer = 10
For Each tbl In CurrentDb.TableDefs
'Ignore local tables.
If tbl.Connect <> "" Then
tbl.Connect = "ODBC;DRIVER=SQL Server Native Client 10.0;SERVER=addwddtls7b1\billinganalytic2;Trusted_Connection=No;Database=Finance_Analytics;"
tbl.RefreshLink
End If
Next
RefreshTableLinks = True
Screen.MousePointer = 0
Exit Function
err_RefreshTableLinks:
RefreshTableLinks = False
Screen.MousePointer = 0
End Function
