BE/FE Security *Important*
Mar 12, 2006
i have an access application in fe/be environment. I have put the BE in a shared forlder on the network.
Now the problem is that the shared folder where the BE is stored, has full read/write access. And this folder is visible to all users on the network from their network neighbourhood or through the mapped metwork drive.
So the problems are:
1) The shared folder has read/write access, so anyone can delete the BE mdb file. <<<<< main problem >>>>>
2) As this folder is visible to even those users who do not use this softaware, anyone can see the data.
We are using winxp and win98 on our network.
What can i do to secure the BE mdb file?

Hi,
I've developed my little database and it works a treat... now I want other people to be able to access it input info via forms (add data), and see reports and run searchs etc... all of which is done through a central switchboard menu.
What I dont want is other users getting into the setup of it all - basically i just want to hide the background workings, relationships, queries etc so nothing can be messed up...
What can i do, and how?!
bear in mind, i still want to be able to have full access myself.
Cheers
amx

I currently have a database and I would like to add in page numbers. I tried the built in functions but they did not work and they are not exactly what I am looking for. I want my page number to look like this:
"1 out of 12 records for MICROSOFT"
So I need the counter to know how many records exist for a specific client and keep track of which one of those records are being viewed. Can anyone help?

Hi, I have a form called Product Details Display Form, which is for Product Details Display table. This form contains a button "Done" which saves everything into the table, or in other words, bounds the unbounded textboxes to the table. Basically, I want this button to be disabled at the begining, when the form loads, and when the user enters ALL the fields, it becomes enabled. Here is the code I have at the moment:
Private Sub Form_DataChange(ByVal Reason As Long)
If Me.Product_Brand = Null Or Me.Product_Code = Null Or Me.Product_Name = Null Or Me.List34 = Null Or Me.Price = Null Or Me.Details = Null Or Me.Discount = Null Or Me.Combo0 = Null Or Me.Combo2 = Null Then
Me.Command36.Enabled = False
Else
Me.Command36.Enabled = True
End If
End Sub
I also have Me.Command36.Enabled = False in the Form-Load. I dont really know if it has to be in Private Sub Form_DataChange or not.
Please help me ASAP
Thanx in Advance

Hi,
I have a 3rd party desktop application to manage inventory. The data will be stored in local MS Access database. I want to sync any changes (insert, update or delete) made to this database to remote MS Sql server immediately or in batches using a scheduler.
Is there any method to know the changed rows in an MS Access table after x time. I mean I want to get all the rows in an Access table that have been added or modified after a particular date and time (say "05-23-2007 10:15:00") without using a user defined date time column in that table.
If i can do the above operation, i will write queries to get the added or modified rows and update remote server in batches.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Anz

I've read and gone though quite a few of the scrips and examples for creating logins and security and i'm getting to the stage when i need to have good understanding of the different methods.
Some of the examples whilst create a user login do not really allow for security within the database whilst the build in security wizard would appear to offer that functionality.
I am thinking that I will use the Workgroup file and that method. My question is am i able to utilise the fact that if a person 'AdamA' logs onto the database which is built into the workgroup security file. am I then able to take 'AdamA' to populate a table which records actions by a user? (I can't seem to find any thread or book reference to doing this)

Is it possible to do this through vba. If security is setup for all the tables and a user goes in and creates a new table, can that table have security applied to it using code?
So maybe the creator of the table has read/write privileges but everyone else only has read only.

Hi
I am experimenting in creating security of a database, and elements within.
I started by creating a user account with a password. I then made a few mistakes, so wanted to delete the mdb, and start again.
However, when I now try to create a new database, or even open a pre existing database, I am asked for the user and password created in the now-deleted mdb.
Apart from the fact that it shouldn't ask for the user name and pasword created in the first database, I am sure it doesn't accept the password I intered in creating the account.
The easy solution would be to delete the file where Access stores user accounts. Where is it, and is it protected, such that I can't delete it? And even if the user name and password still exists somewhere, it should only apply to the database in which it was created, shouldn't it?
Thanks
Robert

Hi all,
Just looking for a little advice on data protection. I have a split database which is accessed from the front end (forms only). All data is stored on the back end, which is hidden away from the user.
The database is password protected, and both sides use a login authentication to avoid unwanted access. However, the usernames and passwords are easily retrievable by opening the database a text document.
Any ideas on how to make this more secure?
Cheers

I try to play Security.
After I created it, the shortcut is created on the screen.
Everytime needs to click the shortcut to login it.
But, when I go to database file, and then click it, it does not work, it will show the following message:
You do not have the necessary permissions to use the <name> object. Have your system administrator or the person who created this object establish the appropriate permissions for you. (Error 3033)
You do not have the necessary permissions for the specified object. To change your permission assignments, see your system administrator or the object's creator.
So, is it ony the shortcut to login it?
if delete the shortcut uncarefully, how to do it??
Thanks.

Hi,
Problem 1:
I setup a security, stored the security file and other files in the drive D:
it works.
after I move the files to the drive C:, then it doesn't work.
Why it doesn't work?
Problem 2:
After I created security, there are acc.mdb, acc.bak, and Secured files, right.
how can I add this link:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice10MSACCESS.EXE" "D:acc.mdb" /WRKGRP "D:Secured.mdw" in the target to the acc.mdb file.
Because when it doesn't work, and then I created a shortcut of the acc.mdb file, then add the above code. Then it works, it give out the prompt.
Does any method instead of this, better than this?
Please let me know, thanks.

Hi
When using security login, can we logout and then login to the database without shutting down the database and re-opening.
Such as using a button to logout and then another to login.

Hi,
I have now finished my system that will run on a windows network. I now need to get the security setup so different users can access different pages.
I have set a list of users and specified what forms/tables they can access. The problem is, how does access know who is accessing the pages? For example, i have set 2 users - Dave G & Dave S - I have given Dave G access to the admin forms as he is the admin and I have given Dave S access to the general data input forms.
How is this enforced? How does access know which person is opening the forms. Unless access asks the user to login using their user name set in access, I cannot see how it can manage what users can do what.
Thanks

First of all, i am pretty new to this....
We have a few access databases in a network. More and more people in our organization are using the databases so I am learning to create some user-level security.
We have access 2000.
Access links to a WIF to create user-level security.
But I think there is an easy way that anyone can get pass that.
Even if I have set all the groups and users privileges and restrictions, anyone can simply switch from one WIF to another WIF, then they would have changed all their privileges and restrictions.
Am I understanding this correctly?
If so, what can I do better secure the database.
Another question:
How can I prevent someone from simply copy/delete the access file from windows? I am afraid that someone, maybe a disgruntled employee or even myself making stupid mistakes, delete the whole access .mdb file, and I would loss everything.
I do backup the file, but even if I back it up every night, if something like this happens, i would have lost a whole day of work.
Your advice are highly appreciated.
Thank you all for your help.

Hi,
I followed the security wizard and everything worked fine. However, when I move the database to another computer or another folder, it prints this message:
'You don't have the necessary permission to use (path)...'
Is there anyway to avoid this please?
Thanks,

Access security is really very confusing, thought I had conquered it but I was wrong. I have been playing with a test DB. How on earth do you reset a password for a user? I just can't see where you go to assign a new password.
Managed to clear the password but then got stuck.

Hi,
I have a question for user-level security and workgroup.
Suppose we setup user-level security and have a workgroup with storing all username, password, and groups,
if adminstrator want to change one user permission, let's say that change the user permission from update to read permission only, then the user should only have read permission, right. However, previously, the user copied the workgroup file himself before adminstrator change his permission, if he apply to his copied workgroup file, and log in the database, he can still have update permission.
So, how do I prevent the user using his copied workgroup file for the database?
How can I solve it?
Thanks.

Hi again
The security on my database so far is justthe standard everyone has a user name and a password, no one can alter the design of a form apart from me
I am just wondering if there is any way that I can prevent people viewing and altering tables, queries etc. It would be good if when the open the database the main form comes up so they can navigate from that and they are always taken back to this and they can never see the database window
Does this have anything to do with front end and back end databases?
Sorry its a bit vauge but hopefully you will know what I mean
thanks
