Hi,
I am connecting two computers via Ethernet port with a 'crossover' wired Ethernet cable. I have set the Sharing properties on computer 'A' such that computer 'B' can see and open the file I am interested in (an Access database) on computer 'A'.
The problem is that computer 'B' will only open the Access database if it is NOT already open on computer 'A'. If I open the database on 'B' first then 'A' can open it fine and both will read and write data from/to the database.
I am drawing a total blank as to what Google search parameters to use. If someone could help me determine what search parameters to use in a Google (or Bing) search that would be lovely. If someone knows the answer directly and wants to help that would be lovely also.
Edit: The database is not split.
Thanks
