    Splitting the database

    Hi everyone,

    I wanted to know whether I could have a back end database with two/three different front-ends linked to the back end?

    I have a PA, Secretary and someone who deals with finance. The PA and secretary would need to have the same forms/queries but the person dealing with finance needs access to other quires/reports. I as the manager would need access to everything.

    Could I not just hide selected tables/queries/reports that are not needed by individuals? I am finding it difficult to set up login forms as a novice.

    Thank you.

    Then edit each individual front end forms as needed.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
