MS Access Forum / Multiuser / Networking / April 2005Network error
Hi, On an installation we have 10 local users on access. We have 5 remote users on a RF link to the same access database the problem is: When a new user try to log on, he have a message box with a yes no button "the database xxx.mdb must be repaired or is not a database." When this happen all the currently log user can continu working everything is fine. But we must stop everyone to perform the compact. Is that sound familiar for someone? Regards, Pierre Yes...and this should probably be expected. Sharing an Access file requires a fast, stable network connection. Yours is probably neither. If it is necessary for remote users to access this database, you might consider using terminal server or similar technology. But you really shouldn't open an Access database over anything other than a local wired network.

Any of these could be used with wireless/RF. Bear in mind the objective here is to allow the RF user to connect to a system that is WIRED on the network and remote control that system through one of the technologies listed. Still, the cheapest and better solution may be to get your users on a wired network connection.
