If there is no Access security, then it has to be a Windows permissions issue, which is outside the scope of Access. You have checked to be sure the mdb file isn't read only, right?

So I'm not sure who or what is preventing the ability to add or delete data. Note that even "super user" doesn't work. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Charlotte Foust Sent: Thursday, December 09, 2004 4:48 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: RE: [AccessD] Running Access 2002 runtime on an Windows XP machine Our clients run like this all the time. We assume that our users are NOT the OS administrators. Are you using Access security? In order to delete records, they have to be able to log in and create the LDB file if it doesn't already exist. If they have no permissions to create/write/delete that file, they won't be able to delete any records.

Anyone have a problem running a 'runtime' version of Access on a machine in which the user is not the "OS "administrator? I have tried "super user" but the user can't delete any records. Says no permissions. This is not the user logging into Access that seems to be the issue. It seems to be the user logging onto the PCs operating system when they start the PC. A user with operating system administrative rights has no problem. Also, if I log on to the OS as the user with limited rights and run the app as an administrator (can do that by right-clicking on the apps, icon and selecting :"Run As") it the app runs with no problems.. Any ideas? Any way of launching an app and specifying the administrator as the user. Maybe a command line argument?
