    Simultaneous Data Entry for Access 2007

    I was curious to know if it was possible to have 2 or more computer on the same network simultaneous entering data into an access form? Current doing a large data entering project and when we have more than one person in the database at the same time entering information it does not always save the data when exiting. Just wanted to know if this is the way it is or is there a way around this issue and how complicated it would be to fix?

    Thanks

    Generally speaking that should be no problem. Any multiuser application should be split, with the back end (containing just the data) on a server and each user having a copy of the front end (containing everything else) on their PC. If yours is not, you could have these types of issues.
