assigning users and passwords

[Guest]

I would like to assign two users to a database. One for general use where
users would log into the database as read only and the other as an admin user
that would be allowed to make changes to the records and the formatting. I
am an average access user; please keep responses from being too complex!

Thanks.....

You can either do this via user level security which is complex and as an
unsophisticated user, you probably dont want to go there. You can also
achieve this by setting up your own user table and detecting the user's
userid at logon time. You will then have to set up each screen to either
allow updates or not based upon the logged on user.
