In the next chapter, we will be looking at different ways that you can monitor who is in the database. Knowing who is in the database is very useful information if you have trouble with your backups or software updating because your database is open . You will also learn other useful administration techniques, such as logging when and by whom a database is opened and closed, logging when someone opens an object, and even how to keep people from logging onto the database. Also, I'll introduce an Access form that will show who is connecting to or sneaking into your databases without using the startup form or AutoExec macro.
