I have not implemented full user security on my mdb, basically because of
the number of problems it seems to cause and there is only a small number of
users. Instead, I have a simple password checking form.
Is there a way of making the mdb Read Only if a particular password is

machine or a workgroup file from being over written. In ...

My first try at Access security, I used the wizard, and setup the passwords,

install Access on machineA and also on MachineB, would the groups be created with the same PID on each?
I have always thought that the system.mdw file is identical ...
