The ldb file must be in the directory with the .mdb file.  The ldb file is used internally by Access at the nuts & bolts level.

But this file doesn't implement security.

You need to use the built-in Access security, giving each user the pecific permissions that they are to have.

Thanks - I'll use the access built-in security and look at the faq. &nbsp;I'm not really sure which answer to choose as &quot;accepted&quot; since you both recommend the same thing! &nbsp; Is there a way to split the points?

Not directly, but it is possible to post requests in the Customer Service area for point splitting.

Is there a way to change the directory the .ldb file is written to? &nbsp;I wanted to setup some simple security for an access database on an NT server - some users in the group with full access and some users in the group with read only permission. &nbsp; Do I need to use the built-in &quot;Access&quot; security? (I haven't spent much time looking at this but it looks more complicated than NT groups...)

Is there a way to change the directory the .ldb file is written to?  I wanted to setup some simple security for an access database on an NT server - some users in the group with full access and some users in the group with read only permission.   Do I need to use the built-in "Access" security? (I haven't spent much time looking at this but it looks more complicated than NT groups...)

.ldb file - a way to change the path it is set to?

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.
