Hi,
Using Access 2002
I have a secure Jet database setup, and a set of users and groups defined.
We want to be able to use Word mailmerge to link to the database and get the
names and addresses for mail and labels. I have locked all the tables, with
access only through queries with RWOP permission, and now find that I cant
link to a query from Word, using the standard Word mailmerge wizard. I get
to the point where I select the database from the file dialog, enter a valid
Access username and password, then test the connection, and get a message
that the open failed - "Test connection failed because of an error in
initializing provider." I presume you must join the workgroup file somehow,
but I could not find any way to do that.
Any help appreciated.
