Hello All,

I am working with microsoft access and SQL server 2005. Have got database in Sql Server 2005 and forms in Access 2007. I am connecting these forms through ODBC connection. One thing i noticed that in order to make user available working in these front ends, i have to make ODBC connection working which in turn needs admin rights for the user on the database in question. Now as i dont want to give users admin rights, how can i still make ODBC connection and get them connected to the database to perform all the functionality which access front end provides.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

why does user need admin rights? what is the front end doing? if it's just reading/writing data, it does not need admin permissions.
