Can you just login as admin and run the command ? Syscmd(acSysCmdGetWorkgroupFile) I have code that will retrieve all the uers in a group, providing you know an admin username and password.

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.
