share a secured db in A97/A XP environment?

Hi:

I have a client database that was developed and is used in A97. There's
security on it, and most users have very limited permissions. Now some of the
users have been upgraded to A XP (I think some may in fact be A2K too), and
they don't seem able to open the database at all.

I'd be satisfied if they were able to open it as read-only, the way they can in
an unsecured database, but it seems that without giving them extensive
administrator-like privileges, they can't do that.

I'm trying to avoid having to maintain two copies of the db, one in A97 and one
in A2K.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Jan

Yes, I've downloaded and read the FAQ. And searched the archives. I'm just treading a little carefully here because of the caveats about locking myself out of the db forever. Some answers I could probably get myself just by trying things out. But don't want to 'play' around too much. I ran the Security Wizard on my system at my office. Did all the usual things, admin -> users, users group have no rights. Assigned rights as required. The...

I have a small aspx page that needs to read a file from a fax server and present it to the user via web interface. The share on the server is secured. Previous implementation used a COM+ component to access the file needed but I'd like to cut that layer out. How can I have one aspx page run with permissions to access a particular share without giving those permissions to the entire website?

Hi, I'm trying to connect to a network share using a username / password / domain of my choosing. I've tried the WindowsIdentity.Impersonate route but can only impersonate the users on the local machine / domain using this method. I could go about creating actual mapped drives but I'd much rather connect temporarily to a UNC share without affecting the system configuration.

I have an application which runs in a non-secure environment. I also have an application that runs in a secure environment (both on the same machine). Is there any way to share the session data for this? Most of the site allows the user to add things to a cart (non-secure), once they choose to check-out, I need this information which was stored in the session to be read by the payment page(secured). Hope this makes sense. It's probably...

Hi, Is it possible to have secured (SSL/HTTPS) and non-secured (HTTP) content in the same page without breaking the security? I am developing a secured reservation system in which the user can access Google Maps (not secured). The map is embedded in the page and does not open in a separate window. What solution do you recommend? Use iframes? If so, how?

I was given a database to update and am running into the following problem: The database appears to have been secured using Access security (it is an MDB, not MDE). Every form etc that I try to open (in the development environment) gives me 2 messages: 1) "You do not have exclusive access to the database at this time etc." 2) "You don't have permission to read frmWhatever... etc."

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
