Re:check, where is Access installed

Via COM interface, I don't know, how I can open a database with special

workgroup, db password, user and password



Via Shell function, I can specify these parameters

Just a thought; do you need to run it via a Shell function? Why not run

it via the COM interface?

Then you should ask in an Access newsgroup. I'm sure those folks will know.
