You can view everything from SSMS logged in as the troubled login?

>From Access 2007, which is what I have in front of me at the moment, I can
click on the Office button.
>From there, if I click on Server->Connection, I can choose any server and
then any database on that
chosen server (that I have access to). Is this where you are not seeing
everything logged in as the troubled user?
