The user needs to have select permissions on the table. I'm assuming they
are using the file,get external data, link tables and choosing ODBC data
sources method to get to the data. Does the user APPS/APPS own the tables?
Are there public synonyms on the tables? What ODBC driver are you using? I
feel the Merant drivers are the best. From my experience any user trying to
access the data this way was able to see all users.tablenames in the system
but did not have authority to access them. Access needs to define unique
keys to identify each record so it can update it. When attaching a table and
there is no PK access will ask you to pick a number of columns that will
make the record unique. Hope this helps.
