I am just now trying to get a database I've created secured. Where is good,
easy follow instructions on user-level securities. I want to set up two
groups, or users, "admin" who can change anything and "users" who can only
enter data, print reports, etc. I'd like them to have to log in since
multiple people use a few computers. I've looked at the "Help" in Access
(2002) and maybe it just that I don't have time, but trying to sort through
the words to find what I want is not easy today. Any assistance is
appreciated.

A good place to start is Joan Wild's site:

www.jmwild.com

She has step-by-step instructions that will walk you through setting up ULS. There's also a link to Jack MacDonald's
excellent writeup on ULS.
