I have a database on my laptop for some testing (it is currently being used by many users with no problems on a server). The backend is in SQL 2005.

I am the owner/creater of the database but I have placed this file in a folder that all users to this laptop have full access to.

When a different user logs on my laptop computer (windows) They can see the file but when they try to open it...Access flashes & you again see the Access open file menu.

I know I am missing something. I have checked the file properties and it is not read-only & Security for all users is full.

What am I missing?
