Joining MS Access MDW

G

Greg

I have a database the has been split with the security,
i.e front and backend, with userlevel security. The mdw
is located on the same network resource. Security is
working correctly. However, I have two users that report
after restarting the computer, they must join the mdw
again.

I completed a test on three other computers but found no
instance of this problem as reported by the user.

Any ideas and assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Instead of having them join at all, give them a desktop shortcut to start
the secure database, and leave them joined by default to their system.mdw.
This allows them to open/use unsecured databases without using the workgroup
administrator to change workgroups. The shortcut target would look like

"path to msaccess.exe" "path to mdb" /wrkgrp "path to mdw"
