Dear all,

We are using sql 7.0. Many people agree it is the best way to have data on one location; they agreed to link to the tables. That is what we wanted.

What happens right now is that a growing number of users is importing huge tables on a frequent base. This is what we would like to restrict.

Linking tables would be the only way to use sql server and not importing. For example ms-access is used to import.

Is there a way to restrict the import functionality on the client or the sql server.

Thanks for your help.

You might need to play around with the user permissions. You can prohibit users from inserting rows into tables and also restrict them from creating their own.
