Database on Citrix Server

[at]

I have a small one-user database I created in Access 2003. Now I would like
to use the database on a Citrix server that has Access 2007 and turn it into
a multi- user database. I have moved the database onto the Citrix server,
converted it to 2007, split it into a BE and FE and made it into a ACCDE (and
still have the original copy). I have done all this on a Public drive in a
folder on the Citrix server. Then I copied the original (not the ACCDE
version) and placed it on my personal drive on the Citrix server, so that I
would have my own copy of the FE on my own personal drive and I plan to do
this with everyone who will be using the db. I then linked the FE on my
personal drive to the BE on the public drive and made my personal drive copy
a ACCDE. Everything works fine. I then went to the next users computer and
had them log in to their connection on the Citrix server and tried to do the
same thing. (Taking the original from the public server (non ACCDE version)
and copy/pasting it on the users personal drive, linking the FE to the BE on
the public drive, then made it a ACCDE) however, there's will not allow them
to create a new record. Everything else seems to work fine. What am I
missing? What could possibly be set on my db that isn't set on theirs? I
did check with the person that set us up with Citrix and he said that all of
the users that would be using the db have the same exact Citrix settings, so
it's not Citrix. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi,

Can the user modify existing records? If not, does the user have read,
write, modify and delete access to the BE folder and the BE itself on the
"public" drive? This would be a user network permissions issue as opposed to
a Citrix issue. If that is not helpful, let us know.
