ACC1x: Error in Object Permissions Table

 * }

Q108437

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Access versions 1.0, 1.1

-

SUMMARY
There is a table in the Microsoft Access "User's Guide" that summarizes the permissions available for objects in a database. This table contains an error. In version 1.0, the table is on page 621. In version 1.1, the table is on page 627.

The third and fourth lines in the table incorrectly show that Read Data and Modify Data permissions apply to form objects. These two permissions do not apply to form objects because forms display data from an underlying dynaset; they do not actually contain data. Therefore, your ability to modify data through a form is actually determined by the Read Data and Modify Data permissions on the form's underlying table or query.

STATUS
This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 2.0.
