Default Database distribution

I have created a database which works well and now it is ready for user input
I have read in various forums that you need to split the database in 2 FE and
BE which I have done I have also read that you need to make a copy to put on
each users desktop.

Here lies the problem: I have almost 200 user does that mean I will have to
make about 200 copies and go to each desktop to install the copy. is there an
easier way of distibuting the database or do I make one copy and get each
user to copy it onto their desktop.

The second question is on workgroups what are they? how do they work and
will I need to create one for my users.

Sorry for the queries I have been creating databasess for my own use but
this is the first time I have had to distribute to a large group.

Any help will be highly appreciated and welcome sorry if this has been asked
somewhere in the groups but I have not found any posts that answer this in a
simple way
