Opening a secured db

[Guest]

Good morning,

I create a database which is secured. In my office I created shortcuts, and
also for certain other user, a batch file which is used to lauch the database
(indicates where access is located, where the front end is, and where to
security file is). Here's my problem. I have been asked to ship it out the
a remote office where the network is controlled by a third party. Long story
short, the users have Access on their computer but we are unable to locate it
path so that I can modify a shortcut to launch the database.

Is there a way to work around this? Is there a way to lauch Access (just
plain access, no database) and then load my database using the appropriate
security file? Does someone have any other ideas?

Thank you in advance for any help, I'm really in a bind.

Daniel

I'm curious to here others ideas, but just to help you out - if you need to
find the path of where Access is running from on there machine send them a
database and excute this code in a message box or some form:

application.SysCmd(acSysCmdAccessDir)
