I got hitched and changed my last name, now I need to
change the 'owner' of my databases to my new log-in name?
How do I change owners?
Thanks

On a couple of posts, Larry Linson has mentioned a good
introductory presentation on multiuser use of Access at
http://appdevissues.tripod.com.  It sounds like a great
starting place for me, but I can't find anything on the

I have a Frontend/backend system.  The frontend resides in the users
C: drive and the Backend Data is on a server share folder.
Is the way I can limit the number of online (active) users to say 5???

I have just converted an Access97 application to Access2003
Under Access97 it was possible to change forms e.g. add
buttons, while other users were in the application - this

Hi to all,
I have a database splitted using a splitter wizard. It works fine for the
multi user environment. My master database resides on a network and each
user has the front end copied to their desktop.

I have an Access 2000 database where the backend resides
on the network (mapped as Z:\) and the frontend resides on
each users PC.  
Users log on to the database and are then presented with

Hi I have an Access 2002 mdb on a Netware 5.1 server

database and whenever the user exits the file size jumps

The following is a list of commands for "MSDOS PROMPT" to remove junk files. It worked very well for Windows 98.
Now I have an "XP" machine and it will not work at all. Please help.

Does anyone know why, when opening a database with shift
held down, it locks the tables for use by anyone else
with links to those tables in other databases?
Is there a way around this?

I have a .mdb (not split) on a network with security setup
by user and group.  I wrote my own routines to log who is
in the db and I can "Boot" any specific computer from the
db.  I need to get in db now.  But, when I try to get into

I have coded for the database to create a copy within the
same directory.  What I would like to do is create an icon
on the desktop, through coding, so that everything is done
for the user to be able to access either of the files.  

I currently have a split access 2003 .mdb.  The (BE) is on my network file
server, this will eventually be upgraded to a SQL server.
When the (FE) is opened several temp tables are created in a temp .mdb in
the local folder.

I am having trouble with conflicts between my main database file and a
replica in the Briefcase of my notebook computer. I think the best
approach would be to remove the replica and start over with a fresh
copy of the master file. What is a safe way to remove the copy from

Our office is moving to a thin client network.  Our user
workstations will consist, therefore, of just a monitor
and the thin client box that provides access to the
server.
