Network resources

[Guest]

Working in A2003 - Split DB.
FE is about 7 Mb on user desktops., BE curretly at 11Mb on the server.
I need to explain what happens when the FE is opened and what data is
transfered to the user across the network.

The purpose is, although we have not experienced any difficulties, a
client's network adminsitrator is concerned about the network traffic with
our plans to deploy the DB to a WAN.

Any help?

Don't even think about putting the DB on a WAN: WANs aren't nearly fast
enough for Access.

Take a look at what Albert Kallal has to say about using Access over the WAN
at http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKallal/Wan/Wans.html for some
alternatives.
