Same DB Plays Different With XP And W2K
May 31, 2005
Hello,
I recently took a job where in addition to normal sysadmin duties, I am able to learn and perform DB admin. As a result, I have inherited several Access databases with a few problems and it is my duty to figure out and solve the problems.
One of the primary problems I am having is one in which the database behaves differently when being accessed from different OS'. For example, When accessed from W2K, the database enforces security and forces the user to enter username and password. When accessed from XP, the same database does not enforce security at all. If you can map to the share on your XP system where the DB is stored, then you can click on the icon and access the DB without error.
Any help appreciated.

I'm using sample code which i will paste below, it includes in the form a comman button, animation control and activeX control. it plays clipart files but when i try to play a movie inavi format such as a movie trailer it says it unable to open..what could i do to make allow all types of avi files.
Private Sub cmd2_Click()
With Cd2
.Filter = "avi (*.avi)|*.avi"
.ShowOpen
End With
With An2
.AutoPlay = True
.Open Cd2.fileName
End With
End Sub
this is sample code from msn website and works for clipart avi files but it seems not to open normal avi movies.
what would have to be done in order to allow any avi to play and or is there any other way i can play avi (any sort) on the form and which also allows me to choose any avi file (i.e from a table etc)
cheers in advance
