Update
The DB had ALREADY been split to a front end & backend & I was trying split the frontend & wondering why it was not working!
Live & learn I suppose!!!
Few more questions about using FE & BE's.
At the moment I think the user's have a shortcut to the frontend (which is on a shared folder on the network) on their desktops.
Should they have is their own copy of the FE on their desktop?
I suspect YES!!!! & it is this that allows multiple users to access the DB.
How many users are allowed to access at one time? Are there any special settings, permissions that I need to set?
Any good Access 2003 texts to recommend for an old 97 access user that hasn't really developed DB's since 1998/9?
Thanks
