One Connection String for Multiple Users (VB)

We have one connection string to our SQL Server 2000:

"Data Source=WORKAPP;Initial Catalog=Parts_Data;Integrated
Security=SSPI;User ID=public;Password=public"

Everyone can connect to the database in our plant except for the Restricted
Users.

Why can't the Restricted Users access this? How can we get around it?

I can access the data, but I am set up as an Administrator.

Our managers can access the data, but they are set up as Power Users.

Most machines are Windows XP, but some use Citrix Servers and a few are
running Windows Vista. The OS does not seem to make any difference.

We do not want to grand Power User status to everyone, and we should not
need to with the correct connection string.

Etiquette is to CrossPost to a few (frugal and germane) newsgroups.

I answered your question in the csharp group.
