I have one user that has LIMITED XP Security priveleges, but if they attempt to use the VB.NET application the .NET framework throws an exception with the message that this user does not have permission to the database - even though they are using an application that connects using ADMIN and no password.

I'm not sure what permissions you have set for the folder where the Access database is located, but
the limited user will need create, read, update and delete access to this folder.
