Possible to share workgroup?

[cjkoontz]

Sorry if this has already been posted. Search feature not working. A link to the proper thread would be cool.

I'm trying to determine if sharing a workgroup is possible between databases.

Let's say I have an Access 2000 database, db1, and I have created a workgroup called db1wg and placed it on an accessable network server share.

Now I create an Access 2000 database named db2.

db1 and db2 have completely different tables, but the groups and users in workgroup db1wg could be used for db2.

Is it possible to use (or share) the workgroup db1wg with db2? Say I create a shortcut for db2 that has the proper structure with the "/wrkgrp" switch?

I believe this is possible if you created the second database with the same workgroup file as the first.

Peace,
