Hi, i am a new user to access 2000. I bought a cd, as a product upgrade companion to VFP9. I had been building tables and forms etc, but after a period of time a security popup appeared saying something like "you are not the owner of the object and cannot therefore make changes and save changes" gradually i am shut out of the access design environment and then have to recreate my work under a different name, which is frustrating. Then i get locked out of the new environment. I have tried to change security permissions and have even added myself as a group. All it says "is you need to contact the owner to change these settings" I am not going to be distributing any applications so i dont need any security settings at all. Please can someone help me to get rid of the security aspects of the software. |

I had a nagging security issue that I couldn't get rid of in an older db and I had to export all objects to an empty, clean db. Some add-ins add code that may give you problems, so check all form code and modules in the db.

Just as a matter of interest, AltonAlan, why do you preface your response with a ">"? The ">" is added by some mail/news readers to message text that you _quoted_ in your reply. It obscures the fact that you have added any comment at all, if you type ">" in front of your reply text.
And, just as a matter of interest, it is unnecessary to quote the entire message to add a single line of "thank you". In fact, it would have been even more effective had you just replied with only enough quotes to identify John as the responder, and then your "thank you" line (not disguised as quoted material).
