I made a database with access/VBA and I want this
database can be accessed by the users in a shared LAN
environment. But what I configured user and group access
to this database in a machine,
can not be seen by users in other machines when this
database is accessed.

What can I do?


Thanks,

Li

I can't be sure from your description, but it sounds as though you modified
the default system.mdw workgroup file.

Security is complicated to set up. Download and study the Security FAQ

Security Whitepaper
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=148555

Although the whitepaper is old, it contains information to help you
understand security.

I've also outlined the detailed steps at
