    Database Launcher

    I know it is possible to make a Database Launcher that can have login features and set permissions to a menu to be able to open other Databases.



    What I curious about is if it is possible to have a login/Main menu database launcher and have the 2nd database which opens keep track of the username and permissions from the first launcher database?

    What do you mean by 'permissions from the first' - a table of users/permissions in launcher? Can link to table or open recordset in VBA.
    What do you mean by 'keep track of'?

    I suppose you could have a local table in the 2nd database and use an "Insert Into" statement to add the name and permissions info.

    Or you could link the 2nd database back to the first and get your info from there.

    I can only wonder why? If it's to get data, link tables, do automation or import. If it's to use 2nd db code, include the db in project references.
