Ow, and then when you know where the .mdw is, I believe mdw's get .ldb
files, just like mdbs, so you should be able to 'see' who's in them with the
.ldb file.

Subject: [AccessD] WORKGROUP FILES

I still need help figuring out what workgroup file a user belongs to and how
to join a different workgroup.  I am trying to test problems connecting to a
SQL Server source at my client.  My admin user can connect, users can't.  Si
I had them create me a "user" on my desktop that I can log into rather
logging in as the admin.  That works, but when I try to open any access
database, I get an error "database in use or no permissions" or something
similar.  It sure looks like an MDW problem, but I just can't figure out how
I discover the physical location of the mdw file that the admin user belongs
to, and then how to cause my new "user" to join that workgroup.
