I have a Server 2008 with MS Access 2007 installed.
I created a task that is designed to lanuch Access, open a designated database, and run a macro. The macro calls a function within the database that generates a series of reports in PDF format for use in a web app. The task was created to run a local user, with credentials stored. This whole process has been running fine for many months. A recent group policy change has caused this to now stop.
The GP now states that user credentials can no longer be stored. I changed the task so that it is to run as SYSTEM but this is not working either. It seems access is launching as SYSTEM, I can see this in the task manager, but it does not seem to open my database since no .ldb is being created. I also added logging code to my function and nothing ever gets in there. I think the issue is that there is no profile for SYSTEM, so when access starts running it's looking to build a profile for that user.
Does anyone know how I can make this work?
