multiple data entry persons

[Guest]

I just want to make sure whether or not multiple people can enter data at the
same time. Once I turn this new database over to the order specialists, they
will be entering the data - most likely concurrently. Is that a problem?

Access is multiuser by default, right out of the box.

It would be a VERY good idea to split the database into a "frontend"
containing the forms, reports, queries, etc. and a shared "backend"
containing the tables. See

http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/splitapp

for a description of this process; you can use Tools... Database
Utilities... Database Splitter Wizard to do the initial split.
