I don't want user to access database my directly
I just want my .Net App to get retrieve data from an
Access2000 database.
How do I point to my workgroup file programmatically ?

If your Net app can see & use the workgroup file, what is to stop a >user<
seeing & using that workgroup file using the workgroup aministrator program
(or option) or the /wrkgrp flag on a shortcut file?

I am a newbie to Access security, but your advice turned
me in the right direction.
I was not aware that the connectionstring should point to
the *.mdw
After some test I came out with this string:
oleCNN.ConnectionString
= "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Password=12345;User
ID=MYadmin;Data Source=" & strDbName1 & ".mdb;Persist
Security Info=True;Jet OLEDB:System database=" &
strDbName & ".MDW;Jet OLEDB:Database Password=12345"

Hope this can help others.

Thx a lot
