Yes, if you have Access security set up.
Read a lot first and make a backup of the database before starting to set security. Write your passwords down and place in an envelope that you lock up. "Ron" wrote: Hi, Is there any way to tell which users are connected to a shared Access database? Regards, Ron

Ron,
Try this. Got this code a long time ago from a newsgroup. It will get you the name of the user logged into a computer on a network. ****Code Private S1 As String Private Declare Function GetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long Public Function FindUserName() As String ' Function that returns the name of the currently logged on user ' Example - MyString = FindUserName S1 = Space(512) GetUserName S1, Len(S1) FindUserName = Trim$(S1) FindUserName = Left(FindUserName, Len(FindUserName) - 1) End Function ****End Code "Ron" wrote: Hi, Is there any way to tell which users are connected to a shared Access database? Regards, Ron
