We moved Access from a Novell server to Microsoft 2003 server. We are not
able to run the database program unless we are logged in as administrator. If
I log in with my user name with admin, domain admin, enterprise admin and
schema admin the Access program doesn't run. I have check file security and
made sure that my user had full rights, which it does. I need to know why
this is happening? It appears to be a security/file access security problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The users need basically full privileges to the folder/directory that holds
the .mdb file so that they can create, delete, and edit the .ldb file.
