User Permission Problem
Jul 17, 2007Hi,
I was in the process of setting up a new user on our database, when I think I inadvertantly changed my own permissions. As the owner & creator of the database I am now unable to open it up - am getting th following messag:
"You do not have the necessary permissions to use the 'NDatabasesGAB Contacts.mdb' object. Have your system administrator or the person who creatd this objct establish the appropriat permissions for you."
After rading another thread on this subject I hav amendd the security options for the database, by right-clicking & selecting properties and the Security tab, then adding myself as the owner - but this has not resolved the problem.
Does anyone have any other suggestions to help me get back into my database?
Limit User's Security Permission With Code
Sep 15, 2005My db is secured using Access security but now find myself needing to code a little security work around if possible.
I have a form that has a subform. On the subform is a field named "Comments". The subform security only lets a particular group write to the fields it contains (including "Comments"). I have a new user that I need to allow to write to "Comments" but not to any of the other fields on the subform. I could make another subform with "Comments" only field and redo my security so that the original group can write to both subforms and new user can only write to "Comments" subform but I think it might be easier to code in that the new user is only allowed to write to field "Comments" in the existing subform. Every user logs into the db so I can get the user ID.
Is it possible to do this?

Forms :: Option Group - Warn User When Neither Of 2 In Option Group Not Ticked?
Jul 25, 2013I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.
" Error - "The Current User Account Doesn't Have Permission To ......"
Jul 31, 2006Hello
I have a very important access database running on a Windows 98SE laptop with Access 97 on the laptop. I wish to have that database backep up and opened on an XP machine running Access 2003. The problem is that the laptop is a corporate laptop with lots of security features and the database can only be opened by that laptop. The laptop only has permissions to read the file, so cannot remove the protection. I have tried to copy the system.mdw file across to the xp machine (in the correct directory), but I still get the below error.
The current user account doesn't have permission to convert or enable this database.
To convert or enable a database, ensure the following:
* You must join the workgroup that defines the user accounts used to access the database.
* Your user account must have Open/Run and Open Exclusive permissions for the database object.
* Your user account must have Modify Design or Administer permissions for all the tables in the database, or it must be the owner of all tables in the database.
* Your user account must have Read Design permission for all objects in the database.
* Request that other users close the database.
I have tried to create a new database on the xp machine and import all the data into a new database, but again I get an error (but only when importing certain forms and macros) below:
"You don't have permission to import, export or link to 'item name'"
I have also tried to create a blank database and import data from the database into it on the laptop, with the same error message above.
Does anybody have any ideas about this one? For example is there a piece of software to remove the protection (not a password remover)? - help appreciated.
User / Group, Security Etc...
Oct 19, 2006Well,
I am currently looking into some of the security aspects of Access, as I am still not yet sure how i'll be designing a new database program, (whether to use Delphi to link to the database or run the database through Access itself) however, I was wanting to look into the security aspect of Access itself as part of my education and decision making process. Now I have deduced (correctly?) that some of the user/group access rights are based on the NT/2k/XP User/Group permissions etc, yet I was wondering if there was a little more to it than that.
In some ways I would like the application (through access or otherwise) to initialize with a logon prompt, that would ask for username and password. The database would internally?? retain the password information for security rights. I'm not sure if i'm thinking this through correctly, so i decided to come here for a few pointers in the right direction.
I'd like to set up internal to the database a set of groups and users with different levels of security. I don't want them based on the XP user account passwords and such, but just an internal database login. This would allow, to some degree, a specific master group to add / remove users from the database, as well as control user access rights to the database internally.
More or less, I want the database itself to be self-contained with all security and access rights, instead of basing them off of some external NT based security information.
So to my actual questions:
Is this possible?
Where would I start looking to set this up?
thanks

General :: Cannot Add New User To A Group
Feb 10, 2015This is a database that uses user-level security setup in Access 2003 but it is being run on 2010. An update to the security system is in the cards in the near months, but right now I need to add one more user and I am having an issue with that.
I can add the new user in the user and group accounts form and I can add him to any group except for one. Unfortunately that is the group that he needs to belong to. You can see in the attached image the new user (jschiff) and the group I want to add him to. There already are some other users in that group. What could prevent me from adding this new user to that group?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSecurity Issue - Group / User Accounts
Aug 17, 2006I moved my access database and not my user account do not have privelages. However, the group accounts they are linked to have been set-up correctly. Why would my group account privelages be ok, but when I look at each user individually they have no privelages set. I'm confused as to why this would be if the users are in the specific groups I have set-up.

Jul 25, 2007We have added a new user, following the steps that we always follow, with no probs upto now.
He's showing in the list of users with membership of the correct groups.
However when trying to login with his username and password although it looks like it's accepting username and password as normal and database begins to open we then get the following error message
"operator has not been found call administrator"

Any ideas?

Query : Group By & Sum Total With User Input?
Mar 15, 2007Hi all.
Stumbled onto this forum during a google search.. looks like a great forum.
I have a question.
this thread http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=124689
goes into a simple function to group by the name and add their total.. however what i need to do is that plus have a user input of the date.
eg of the table
Date Title Invoice
02/02/07 ABC123 11.00
02/02/07 ABC123 12.50
02/02/07 DEC123 11.50
03/02/07 ABC123 10.50
What i need is a paramater query to be able to work to give me the total of the groups..
Whenever i try to join my Parameter query with my sum query it gets messed up..
heres the code... what am i doing wrong?..
What i want displayed after they input the date is the group by and sum total of the parameter query..
SELECT RawData_tbl.[Title 2], RawData_tbl.[Estimated Value], RawData_tbl.[Date In], RawData_tbl.Quote, RawData_tbl.GST, Sum(RawData_tbl.Invoice) AS SumOfInvoice
FROM RawData_tbl
GROUP BY RawData_tbl.[Title 2], RawData_tbl.[Estimated Value], RawData_tbl.[Date In], RawData_tbl.Quote, RawData_tbl.GST
HAVING (((RawData_tbl.[Date In]) Between [Please Type the first day of the month] And [ Please insert the last day of the month]))
ORDER BY RawData_tbl.[Title 2];
Is The Current User A Member Of The Admin Group?
Aug 10, 2007I am setting up a call log for an application. Once a message has been entered, I need to restrict access to the person who created it AND to managers (who have admin privelages to the database). Since the user who created a message needs to be able to go back in and edit it if necessary, I can NOT simply restrict access to the edit form to admins.
The command that opens this form looks like this so far:Code:If ((Me.[Transaction] = "Status Call") And _ (Me.[TransactionBy] = CurrentUser())) THEN DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEditMessage" ...Else MsgBox("Blah blah blah, etc etc.")End IfI need to add something to the initial If statement like this:Code:Or (CurrentUser.isMemberOfGroup("Admins"))but I don't know the correct Access syntax for it.
Any help anyone can give me would be appreciated!
Urgent: Determining SQL Server User Name & Group From Access

Using Access's User And Group Accounts Or Using A Login Form To Access Database?
Sep 9, 2005Using Access's User and Group Accounts or Using a Login Form to access database?
I've been researching on how to make a database secure. How to create User and Group Accounts on access, I see the step by step instructions and tried it out myself.
I also saw some sites where they give an example of a Login Form and how to create one.
My question is do you need to create both. First create the users and groups to permit or deny access to certain forms and then have a login form?
But would that mean that they'd have to login twice? Once when the database opens because it activates the db security that was created and then login again in the login form that was created?
Also when the user logins in and clicks on the cmd button on the form which opens up another from, frmWorkLog, I have an Employee field. This field I want it to have the user's name entered automatically and "locked". So that info, employee name, is extracted from the user's login. So then the user can only see his or her records only and no one elses.
How would I go about creating that. Hope I made my explanation clear.
Thanks in advance.

Access97 Permission Problem
Dec 19, 2007I bought a database about 10 years ago and still uses it. Since then we changed our address and need to update all the forms as the address is hard coded into the forms. When I tried to modify any thing it tells me I don't have the Permission. I tried to contact the programmer, but he's been out of business years ago and was unable to contact him.
How do I reset the permission on MDB? I tried Tools->Security->User/GroupPremissions and it only shows Admin user with "Read Design" checked on all object names. And if I check on any other permission it says I need administer permission.
I tried upvmsa2k.zip "Users' passwords viewer v3.2" and it shows admin user with garbled up password. Also tried MDWRecovery, but it says there's no user or password.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Access 200 Permission Lockup
Feb 20, 2008Either when copying from one db to another on my machine or running a db produced on that machine on a network, I get the message "the database has been placed in a state by user (my machine is called "Rat") that prevents it from being opened or locked". =Error 3734.
The security data says I am "Admin" and permission is set for Admin and Users. It has been doing this intermittently for a while and now does it all the time.
Follow up data
All databases are created, revised and run on home machine (Rat) and run on the office network.
The offending DB will permit internal design, editing , copying and will accept pasting IN of tables etc. from other DBs. But it will not allow copying OUT of files such as a table to other DBs even on the machine that created them. However it will allow copying and pasting of objects such as forms in visual form or individual query cells to other DBs.
I’ve carefully compared the Tools/Security/User & Group Permissions with a good running version of the DB and can see no difference.
Permission settings on good and bad DBs are:-
Permissions: Admin Object: Current DB
Checked: Open/Run, Open Exclusive, Administer.
I’ve also checked each individual files’ Permissions. The .ldb file, viewed with Word with the offending DB running on my office machine (Weasil), reads:-
WEASIL_ Admin_
The creating machine “Rat” uses the Account “Richard”: but I have had few similar problems before. While revising the DB, I made 30 copies of at each stage along the way but saved carefully each design change and certainly did not deboot the computer without doing so.
I’ve tried the above procedure on my computer (Weasil) at the office, but got the same result. So it’s not the computers or MS Access 2000 program. Somewhere along the line, perhaps, the DB got corrupted. It Repaired and Compacted OK but still has the problem.
Why Those Permission Differences Btw Access Files ??
Sep 1, 2005Hi accessors,
I have 1 permissions related Q.
If I create msaccess db by calling the app through its icon, i get a db with following permission items :
Administrators(compNameAdministrators)
System

but if I create it through rightclick> new> ms_office_access_application, I get a db with:
Administrators(compNameAdministrators)
Everyone
System
user(compNameuser)
Users(compNameUsers)
VS Developers(compNameVS Developers)
Why /the hell/ those differences btw the same kind of files ? :mad:
