MORE INFORMATION
Steps to Reproduce Problem
- Open the sample database NWIND.MDB.
- From the Security menu, choose Permissions.
- Select the Groups option button.
- In the User/Group Name box, select Users.
- In the Object Name box, select the Categories table.
- Assign full permissions to the Users group on the Categories
table. (Select the Read Design, Modify Design, Administer, Read
Data, Update Data, Insert Data, and Delete Data check boxes.)
- Choose the Assign button and then the Close button.
- From the File menu, choose Add-ins then choose Database Documentor.
- In the Print Definitions Of Objects box, select the Categories table,
and then choose the Select button.
- Choose the Options button and then make sure that the Permissions
By User And Group check box is selected. Choose OK.
- Choose OK to generate the Object Definition report. Note that for
permissions for the Users group, the Database Documentor reports
"Read Permissions," which is incomplete for this table.
This problem also occurs if you create a new group and assign full
permissions on a table to the group.
