U can use msacces.Exe "MyDB.MDB" /USER %USERNAME% to start access with
the network user account. U must have windows NT/2K or XP for this. The
network acccount must also be in the workgroup file.
U can also use "%HOMEDRIVE%\MyFolder\Mydb.mdb" if you put a front end in
the homefolder of the user.
Again, only for NT/2K and XP
The workgroup file you can specify also at command lie option or in a
ini file located int he same folder as the app.

If you are using a shortcut, you can include a password too.

You can if you don't have passwords on those login names in the
workgroup file and if they use use a shortcut to open the database that
includes the path to the workgroup file and the username they're logging
in as.

Thanks, but not quite...
I haven't used access security for a couple of years so 'scuse me if I'm
missing something :@)
If a database is secured then access will prompt the user to login (this
happens before any code can be run, if the user cancels then the db
doesn't open, no code is executed). Can it be set up to just go straight
in if the windows login matches a name in the workgroup file?
Many thanks
Mark

Is this what you're looking for? It returns the users login name.
<code>
Private Declare Function apiGetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias _
"GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
Function GetUserName() As String
'This code was originally written by Dev Ashish.
'It is not to be altered or distributed,

'Code courtesy of Dev Ashish
' Returns the network login name
Dim lngLen As Long, lngX As Long
Dim strUserName As String
strUserName = String$(254, 0)
lngLen = 255
lngX = apiGetUserName(strUserName, lngLen)
If lngX <> 0 Then
GetUserName = Left$(strUserName, lngLen - 1)
Else
GetUserName = ""
End If
End Function

Subject: [AccessD] Workgroup security and windows logins
Hello All
This may be a dum question, but here goes anyway...
Is it possible to integrate the workgroup security that comes with
Access with the Windows login details?
I'd like to be able to secure the front and backend objects and grant
relevant permissions to relevant groups etc. but I'd like the user to
get straight into the application if they are logged into a windows
account that's in the workgroup. i.e. no password prompt.
I know how to pick up the userID from windows etc. I just want to
prevent the password prompt. If the windows login isn't in the workgroup
list then they cant get.
Sorry if this is a bit simple...
Cheers
Mark
