Workgroup in shortcut

[npjonze]

Hi All,

Using A97

Ive splt a database FE/BE. I've setup a new workgroup file and created new group and users for that group with various permissions. I've placed the MDW (Mydatabase_FE.mdw) file in the same place as my FE/BE databases.

I've then run wrkgadm.exe and joined the default system.mdw so it doesnt ask me to logon to other mdb's.

I've used a shortcut including the wrkgrp switch to start my secured mdb with the following in the target:

"C:\My Databases - Access\Secured\Mydatabase_FE.mdb" / wrkgrp "C:\My Databases - Access\Secured\Mydatabase_FE.mdw"

When I try to logon using the shortcut it gives me the "You Dont Have Permission..." error. Why?

I have a feeling I have made some classic mistaskes in introducing user level security and I apologise if this question has been answered a million times before (I did look through the archives but couldnt see anything pertinent to my dilema!)

Thanks in advance

My mistake

Sorry for the waste of a post

I forgot to put the exe iin the shortcut target : i.e

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSACCESS.EXE" /wrkgrp "C:\My Databases - Access\Secured\Mydatabase_FE.mdw" "C:\My Databases - Access\Secured\Mydatabase_FE.mdb"

That works fine. All I've got to do now is get my permissions right

Thanks folks
