How do I work with a security-enhanced application and an unsecured application at the same time?

0

Create separate shortcuts on your desktop for your security-enhanced application and the default, unsecured installation of Microsoft Access. You can only log on to one workgroup information file (System.mda/mdw) at a time, so your users must understand that they have to quit and restart Microsoft Access when they want to switch back and forth between security-enhanced and unsecured applications. A second option is to train your users to use the Workgroup Administrator, but this is usually confusing to end-users. Creating separate shortcuts is not that difficult, and you only have to do it once. The techniques are different for each version of Microsoft Access. Microsoft Access 2.0: You need to use two different .INI files: one for the default installation and one for the security-enhanced application. The easiest way to do this is to make a copy of MSACC20.INI and name it something else, like SECACC20.INI and leave it in your \Windows directory. Change one line in the Options section
