We have a Win2003 Server with and MS Access database located on it. We have
many users accessing the database through a company share. I'm trying to
setup the system so the users have the ability to read and write to the
database but cannot copy or move the database on the server.

Anyone have any Ideas.

Thanks for your help.
Roman

i think you can do that with permissions on the foder where the database is
stored, just right click and go to secuity tab and it is straight forward
from there

You will probably need to gate access to the database through
some frontend, with the identity used for the frontend then being
what needs read/write.
If you users access the mdb directly wiith Access then they will
need permissions sufficient for them to copy the database file.

Not possible without massive system hooking, which you do not want to do.

Create an ASP[.NET]/PHP front end to the database, but still they could step
through and just save all the pages.
