I moved my access database and not my user account do not have privelages. However, the group accounts they are linked to have been set-up correctly. Why would my group account privelages be ok, but when I look at each user individually they have no privelages set. I'm confused as to why this would be if the users are in the specific groups I have set-up.

It is possible that the database was set up exactly as it should have been set up. You NEVER want to give a user privileges. You always define groups, give privileges to the groups, and then make your users members of the groups. But when looking at individual users, NOBODY should have any permissions at all.
This is because the Windows paradigm of "user gets what s/he gets through group members" spills over to Access/Workgroups. Same company, same security advisors, etc. etc.
If this is not responsive to your question, try to rephrase it.

Ok so what your saying is the User itself will not show any privelages if I select them even after adding them to the groups with privelages? I'm a little confused because my user account did show the settings. Maybe it's because I'm the creater / administrator.
