Display users in shared Access 2007 database

2 New Member
Hi All,

I've searched all over to try to figure this out, to no avail. I need to have some method to determine who's logged into an Access 2007 file. I've seen techniques for reading the old .ldb file format, but they don't seem to work with the new .laccdb file format.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks!

Cheers,

Hi. In the ldb file you can see the users of the mdb-file. If you open the mdb-file your machine and username will be written in the lbd- file. Allthough you close the mdb-file your name won't disappear from the ldb-file, before every user has closed the mdb-file. I have heard that there will be problems if the amount of users will be over 10 in mdb-files. Is that true? Hannu

Database Users need to have Read/Write etc... permissions to the folder where the Database resides in order to create the lock file. I have read only users. I have set up the Shortcut that links to the 'Workgroup Info File' with permissions for said database. Within this 'WIF' File I have "Read Only" user's who are only provided access to the DB only so they can view the data. Now if I give them full permissions to the folder where...

We are using a shared split database with all users currently using Access 2003. The back end is on a shared drive of a state wide WAN. Each user has a copy of the front end on their local computer. I programmed and maintain the database. We have about 140 users with about a maximum of about 20 concurrent users. I use user level security to determine which of the three groups a user belongs to, and then VB Script and macros show the...

10 years ago, the below was written (see very end, after my signature RL). What, if anything, has changed? I have Access 2003 and soon Access 2007 on a Windows XP Professional or Windows Vista Ultimate machine, with SQL Server Express running on it, and I want somebody, with a password (which I will provide) to be able to log onto a A03 or A07 dB from the internet. Now that I type this I realize that unless I put the database onto a...

I have a shared Access mdb that was originally written in A2000. The database is large, around 40 tables, 40 forms (many with multiple sub-forms), and 100s of reports. The database is not split, but runs off of the LAN in the office with about 5 or 6 concurrent users. Recently the office upgraded to A2007 but they are continuing to run in compatability mode. The problem is that with ordinary use, read/write operations through the...

I have developed a database, split it, loaded the back end onto a shared folder on the network and placed a copy of the front end on each user's pc. the database is set to open in shared mode, however as soon as one user logs in the others can't causing access to lock up/ not respond. all the users have access 2007 installed, and definitely have their own front end - any ideas how to fix this?!

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
