CONVERT OLDVERSION WORKGROUP FILE

Convert Workgroup File to New Version

To take advantage of security and performance improvements, you should re-create the Workgroup Information File as described below:

1. Create a new workgroup information file, making sure to enter the exact, case-sensitive name, company name, and workgroup ID that was used to create the original file. Failure to re-enter the exact entries that were used to create the original file will create an invalid Admins group.
2. Re-create any group accounts, making sure to enter the exact, case-sensitive user name and PID for each user.
3. Tell other Microsoft Access 2000 users in the workgroup to use the workgroup Administrator to join the new workgroup information file.
