My file is on a shared directory in my server, and many people can use it,
and I want yo know which users are logged on.

Tks

Fabio,

I'm not sure if my previous post made it, so here is take 2.

There are various technics to achieve what you want. Below is what I did
which was suggested by someone in the forum a couple months ago and works
perfectly for me!

1- Make a new db (call it something like dbusage.mdb)
2- create a table with the following fields: username, login, logout,...
3- in your main db link to the table created in step 2.
4- create a hidden form which you setup to open as soon as the db is openned
and who when opened enters the username and login time and when the form is
closed (when the db is closed) enters the logout time.

This way not only can you easily see who is currently logged in (anyone
without a logout entery) but you can track the overall usage of your db.

Hope this helps,

Daniel
