User Permission Problem

[Richie2837]

Hi,

I was in the process of setting up a new user on our database, when I think I inadvertantly changed my own permissions. As the owner & creator of the database I am now unable to open it up - am getting th following messag:

"You do not have the necessary permissions to use the 'N\Databases\GAB Contacts.mdb' object. Have your system administrator or the person who creatd this objct establish the appropriat permissions for you."

After rading another thread on this subject I hav amendd the security options for the database, by right-clicking & selecting properties and the Security tab, then adding myself as the owner - but this has not resolved the problem.

Does anyone have any other suggestions to help me get back into my database?

I haven't tried anything like this but it's worth a try:

are you getting a login box, if not place /USER in the shortcut.

Thanks Dennisk, the /USER tip worked a treat!

So that forced a login prompt to appear?

 

[Richie2837]

Yes, worked great.

Cool. I'll have to remember that
