Yes. Access is designed to be multi-user.
It would be a good idea to split the database. If that's a new idea, see: Split your MDB file into data and application at: http://allenbrowne.com/ser-01.html -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.

In practice it's essential to "split" the database. See the instructions at http://home.bendbroadband.com/conrad...splitting.html John W. Vinson[MVP] |
