LDBView.exe vs Msldbusr.exe

[Hawk]

Can anyone explain the difference between using these two
utilities from the Jetutils package from Microsoft? I
have read the documentation and tried them both, but I
don't really see the difference between what info they
provide. I am trying to decide which utility to provide
to an Administrator. TIA...

LDBView is a standalone exe.

MSLdbUser contains msldbusr.dll which allows you to programmatically get the list of users etc. You can use this dll to design your own form to display such info, example http://www.mvps.org/access/modules/mdl0055.htm.

As to which one you should give to the admins depends on your requirements.

LDBView is really only useful for A97/Jet 3.5 while msldbusr is for
A2000/Jet 4.0.
