Hello All
I have a split FE/BE A97 mdb. The BE (278mb) is on a server, with 7 FEs
(115mb) on 7 PCs: the PCs are running W2K professional, with 512mbRAM on
each. This is all starting to creak a bit: we are increasingly frequently
getting database corruptions and "can't open any more tables ..." and other
messages that I think are due to our being close to access's limits in terms
of sharing and effective mdb size.
I have been wondering about converting the FEs to MDEs: would this be a good
idea? I understand that I would have to make any FE design changes to the
original FE MDB and then re-convert to MDE, but apart from that are there
any other likely problems with the users working on MDEs (they don't need to
make any design changes).
Thanks for any advice.
