Sharing File on server
Is it possible to have a network use the same file at the same time and all
changes saved to the 1 file. I am writing a database so 7 people can use it at my workplace but the problem is that if only 1 person can access it at a certain time I will have to rethink my stratergy. Thanks Greg |

It is a built in function of MS Access. No need to do anything special. What is the problem in implementing this? -- JamieMorien ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JamieMorien's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=19499 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=399320 |

You can share workbooks, but there are limitations.

I am guessing he is creating a database in Excel, not Access.
So, why can't you save it as a Shared Workbook? Tools - Share Workbook, click "Allow changes ..." on the Editing tab. "JamieMorien" wrote in message ... It is a built in function of MS Access.
