MS Access Forum / Security / July 2006How to make database available to computers w/out Access installed
In my office only 3 out of 10 people have Access on their computers, but I want all of them to be able to access the database i created, I've posted it on the local server, but only the people with Access can currently use it. How do i solve this issue? Thanks By purchasing licences for Access for each computer... You can alternatively purchase a single licence for the Office Developer's Edition, which includes a runtime version that you can host on as many computers as desired. >In my office only 3 out of 10 people have Access on their computers, but I >want all of them to be able to access the database i created, I've posted it >on the local server, but only the people with Access can currently use it. >How do i solve this issue? >Thanks -- jackmacMACdonald@telusTELUS.net remove uppercase letters for true email http://www.geocities.com/jacksonmacd/ for info on MS Access security Well, thanks for the response, but the reason I asked the questions was because of the fact that my boss doesn't want to purchase more licenses. But if this is the only way everyone can view the database, i’ll have to convince him that it's necessary. > By purchasing licences for Access for each computer... > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > remove uppercase letters for true email > http://www.geocities.com/jacksonmacd/ for info on MS Access security > Well, thanks for the response, but the reason I asked the questions was > because of the fact that my boss doesn't want to purchase more licenses. > But if this is the only way everyone can view the database, i'll have to > convince him that it's necessary. Did you take this on board? "You can alternatively purchase a single licence for the Office Developer's Edition, which includes a runtime version that you can host on as many computers as desired." You buy the *one* developer license for as many run-time instances as you like. It will also stop people fiddling with your design if you haven't secured it.
