Sharing question

[Guest]

Hi
From searching through the posts on sharing databases, I've determined there
are two ways you can share a database. You can split it into front and
backends. Or you can choose to open the database as "shared" rather than
"exclusive" under Tools, Options. These to me sounds much easier and
simplier. I'd really appreciate learning when you should use each of these
methods. My database will be shared by 6 people on a LAN.
Many thanks
Anne
