C

Access database that has all the data in a backend database and th
forms are in another database with a link to the backend.
workgroup file exists on the network with all the users setup.
Created a shortcut for the front end database, and use the paramete
of \wrkgrp to use the workgroup on the network. When clicking on th
shortcut, then exit out and going back into the database with th
shortcut, the following error message is displayed: Microsoft Acces
couldn't find file XXXX. The file is required for startup. The XXX
would be the name of the workgroup. If I wait a minute or so, the
able to go into the database using the shortcut. Has anyone see
this before

No, I haven't seen it but it would appear to be a timing problem with data
transmissions across your LAN, possibly an operating system setting that can
be changed by the System Administrator. My "platform" knowledge is not
sufficient to suggest any more detail.
