Hi all,

First time I've run into this. I have a split database, MDEs on the
workstations, mdb on the server. Everything is set to open Shared but no more
than one person at a time can open the database. I can't even open the back end
by itself. Could there be anything other than a corrupt database that would
cause this?

Thanks,
RD

What permissions do you have on the folder where the MDB is located? All
users must have at least Read, Write, eXecute and Delete, even it they're
only going to be reading data.
