The power supply on our server failed. After replacing it, there have been
many other issues because of it. The one I am asking about here is before
this hapenned, more than one user could open a front-end. Now when a second
user trys to open a frontend it will say it is not able to because the
backend is already in use. How is something like this resolved?

Thanks,

CEV
 
Users must have full rights to the folder where the database resides: read,
write, create, and delete. If the database is secured, they must also have
full rights to the folder where the MDW file resides.

If they don't have create/delete rights, Access cannot create the file it
needs to manage the record locking (LDB file.) Consequently, it is not able
to support multiple users.
