Hi,

I have created an Access database. I have created an Workgroup file,
and made respective groups and users. But all the users have the
runtime version of MS Access. They can open the database and view
records from the frontend. And if they want to do any updations they
need to join the workgroup. But in runtime version MS Access does
provide the menu to join the workgroup file. So my problem is how to
join the workgroup file from MS Runtime Version

Thanks

The preferred method is to create a custom shortcut that specifies the
workgroup file as a command line argument. No need then to "join" any other
workgroup. The target for the shortcut would have the following
construction...

"Path to MSAccess.exe" /wrkgrp "Path to workgroup file" "Path to MDB file"
