The backend db is in Z:\SwimClub\ascs_be.mdb
the frontend is in program fiels C:\Program Files\Swim_Club.
I joined the security database for the frontend. I think I joined it
on both files. I can open the backend with the account and password.
I couldn't open the password in exclusive mode. When I joined the
security db I noticed I could open the frontend in exclusive mode but
I only have form view. I still do not have design view. It says I
don't have permission to change the objects. Do I need to add myself
to the security database as an administrator? Since I can get in to
the backend and I can't to the front end I don't know how to change
the system db to get me in to the front end.
I did notice that the front end is Access 2000 and the backend was
converted to 2003.

Please advise.

TIA,
Janis

Sorry but I am going to repost this question I think this may be a
password problem.
