MS Access Forum / Multiuser / Networking / May 2004Concurrent Users at a low cost
Hi I have a question about Microsoft Access. I working for a new start-up company designing their databases, for legal purposes we want to be correct, but also keep our costs low. What is the best way for us to run my access program on multiple computers concurrently. Our network configuration is 1 server connects to 5 computers. -Can we run it all from the server and access MS Access installed on the server? or -Must each computer have its own licensed version of MS Access, to work properly? -Is there any licensed cheap versions of Access just access the forms and reports? -What about using a Microsoft Access Project? -Finally can MS Access be used as a stand alone software? Thanks in advance , Mike >Hi I have a question about Microsoft Access.

A front-end for each workstation, and a backend that contains all the tables and is mounted on the server. >-Must each computer have its own licensed version of MS >Access, to work properly? Yes - Access must be installed on each computer. Licencing is a separate issue -- again, each machine must have its own licenced copy. >-Is there any licensed cheap versions of Access just >access the forms and reports? The Office Developer's version includes a run-time that you can distribute to as many machines as required. >-What about using a Microsoft Access Project? >-Finally can MS Access be used as a stand alone software? ???? I don't understand the question. >Thanks in advance , > >Mike ********************** jackmacMACdonald@telusTELUS.net remove uppercase letters for true email http://www.geocities.com/jacksonmacd/ for info on MS Access security |
