Connection to the Server

[Lilian]

Hello Access experts!
I've got some problem. Can someone explain to me the procedure of how to
connect Access 2007 to the local server.
As far as I understand I have to create my own administration system then
with help of database splitter I must split the database into 2 files. One
will contain info about tables other will contain info about forms, rapports,
etc. Then I must create an icon at the desktop through which will come
authorization.
But how to connect database to the local Server? Database will be used of 6
users and has internal purpose of use.
I will be very appreciated if someone will help me!
Best regads,
Lilian

You link the front end to the back end using either a mapped drive letter
(E:\Folder\File.mdb), or a UNC (\\server\share\Folder\File.mdb)

Unless you can be certain that all users map their drives the same way, UNC
is probably better.

Thank you for the answer!
I never connect the database to the Server. Where I have to write a mapped
drive letter(E:\Folder\File.mdb)?
