Hello,
I have an Access database splitted into FE & BE. The BE &
workgroup are placed in the same folder in a network drive.
I emailed the FE to users and instructed them to copy to
their C: drive and created a shortcut so the path is
directed to the workgroup in the network drive.
In the database, I created an user account called "mfg"
for users to log in. There are several users using the mfg
account to log in the database at the same time. The
problem is once one mfg user is log on, there other users
cannot log in, it said the following: "Couldn't use (the
path to the workgroup MDW file); file already in use."
Any suggestion & help on how I can eliminate this issue so
more than one users can log in the same time with only
users access right permission. Thanks
PS. The only reason I didn't create more than one user
account is because there are 20 users or more. I remember
someone suggested not to create 20 user account as it is
more difficult to manage as one user account is more
easier to manage.
