Thanks for the replay. Yes I have run the workgroup administrator and
pointed it to a generic .mdw. We have many Access db's and most of
them do not use security. That's why I specify the .mdw in the target
line of the desktop icon for the few that have security.
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSACCESS.EXE"
I:\AccessWG\DPPROJ2K.mdb /wrkgrp I:\ACCESSWG\SYSTEM.MDW
The really wierd part is that once you open Access on its own then the
icons work.
Something is moving or deleting your System.MDW file. The reason the above
fixes the problem is that starting with A2000 Access will automatically
create a new default System.MDW anytime it can't find one, but it only does
so when Access is opened without specifying a file.
