Access Database Locked

[Guest]

Hi all,

Right got a little simple problem that i cant seem to fix at the
moment........

I have a database that i have made. And the database needs to be able to
allow 2 or more people to have it open at any one time. At the moment is says
that the database is locked and cant be opened.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks All.

Dan

Daniel,
Make sure all the users have full access to the folder where the database
resides.

It sounds as if one user has it opened exclusively. Also, in my experience
it is good practice to split the database and supply each user with their
own front end.
