Can one user be joined to multiple workgroups at the same time?

I have several databases that are secure for which have different workgroups.
And sometimes a user needs to be able to work in more than one of these. Is
there another way besides unjoining from one database and joining another
everytime? Thanks!

"Joining" a workgroup just means "make this one my default" so no, you cannot
have more than one default.

What you can do though is use a workgroup without joining it. You just specify
it as a command line argument when opening Access. This is usually done by
creating a shortcut with a target line like...

"Full Path to MSAccess.exe" /wrkgrp "full path to MDW" "Full Path to MDB"

(specifying the MDB to open is optional)
