Access Help

[miramichiboy]

My experince with access has only ever been for my use only. I've decided to build a db for a construction that would be shared over a network and I have no experince with that setup. ONly talking 5 users max and no server will be used. Also, I need to know how to create the user freindly front end and the back end. Any info on this would be great.

I would start a new thread if you have a specific question.

If I use the split database function I think this will do what I need eh? The database will be shared on network and only have 3 people using at once.

You definately want to split you db into FrontEnd and BackEnd and each user should have their own copy of the FrontEnd.

I've made my db multi user with fe and be... so now I need to make changes(add tables, forms,etc) do I have to repeat process?

I don't usually split my db's until I'm ready to release for use. It is easier to develop while it is all in one db.
