    Multiply front end on same computer?

    Can I create another front end for the (networked) back end of our access database? Reason being is that I do not want to 'clog up' my 'business' front end with additional reports and queries that only I run.


    Thanks,
    Frank

    Yes, of course. You can even have both of them running at the same time.

    From Windows Explorer just copy and paste. It *must* have a different name than the original.
