Hello people! I'm rather new to Access so forgive any ignorance I might show, I've googled my ass off but can't really find a solution. Here's the thing: When 2 people are working on the same database (Just a standard .mdb file) there's some issues for a very computer illiterate customer of mine. I figured I could resolve this by finding out how I can make the file lock up while it's in use, whether the second person who tries to open the file gets an error or can open the file in read-only mode doesn't really matter, as long as only 1 person can edit it at the same time. I was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction since I've not really gotten anywhere so far. Thanks in advance!
