Access User Utility

Hello Everyone,

At one time, I used this great little piece of freeware--a desktop utility
that let me see who was logged on to an Access database over the network.
Of course, now that I've moved on to a new employer and really need it, I
can't remember it for the life of me. Does anyone know of something like
that?

Thanks,

William

re: Access User Utility

LDBView.exe will do that.

LDBView will show misleading results for Jet 4.0/Access 2000/2002 MDBs as it always
flags the suspect column as yes whenever everyone exits the MDB. For Jet 4.0/Access
2000/2002 See HOW TO: Check Who Logged into Database with Jet UserRoster in Access
2000 http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;198755
or http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;285822

Also see LDB Viewer Form which has the above code in a form in an MDB for you.

UserRoster is an ADO feature (one of the few that ADO provides that
is not provided in DAO).

Keep in mind that you can use late binding and not have to keep an
ADO reference.
