We have a MS Access database located on a shared drive. Is there a way I can allow multiple users to access and update the database at the same time?

Jump to PostHi,
There are ways, but you need to consider carefully what simoutaneous updating you wish to do.
For example if you have a database of names and addresses and two people wish to update it at same time, then if they wish to update different records, no problem …
Jump to Postis this forms-based, that is, does each user update tables through forms? or does the user simply open a table?
is this a relational database? are the tables linked by foreign keys? or is this just a bunch of tables?
