Logon requested???

Post by Egg 'n' Bacon »

I'm really struggling to deploy a database (created in 2007, in 2000 format), to a user who has Office 2002 and Windows 2000.

It's a very simple database, but the machine keeps asking for a logon (users name is filled & password required) :scratch:

Any ideas what I can do to enable this (and other DBs) to run.

TIA

Does this happen to this user for other databases too?
Best wishes,

No, but I think this is the only machine using W2000

It shouldn't really matter whether the user has Windows 2000, XP, Vista or 7.

Do you notice anything special if you right-click the database in Windows Explorer on the user's PC and select Properties?

Has that user worked with a Secure database, and modified the default workgroup to require a username/password?

I can't tell from your answer if the problem occurs for that user with other databases. Your answer to that question seems to be about other users of the same database.

I think it's something to do with the windws/network user profile, as another user with the same set-up does not have problems.

Time to contact our IT support <fcrossed>
