Access Workgroup PID

L

Linda

I have inherited an Access database where the previous developer
created the workgroup security file. There are groups with various
object permissions. Is there a way for me to see in report format
what these permissions are? Am I somehow screwed because I dont know
the the Group ID or PID anymore? Is there anything I can do to get
the security info?

Hi, Linda.
Is there a way for me to see in report format
what these permissions are?

Log into the database as either the owner of the database or as a member of
the Admins group, and then run former Access MVP Jeff Conrad's CSD tools to
get a report on all of the permissions on the objects, which you can then
export to either Excel or Word. You can download his tool and the
instructions on how to use it from the following Web page:
