Hi all,

I have an .adp (access project file) desktop application that works fine on a number of people's laptops.

One of the users however, keeps getting an error message stating that SQL Server does not exist or access has been denied.

This particular user is definitely setup on SQL Server with dbo permissions. She can also ping the server.

I have tried creating a DSN on her machine and it doesn't work either.

I am at a loss as to why this error message is occurring given that she can see the Server and has definitely been setup.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kabir

Does that laptop have a firewall installed prohibiting network traffic on standard sql port 1433?
