access 2000 database in share mode, but not sharing

J

Jack Black

HI All

I have my access 2000 database in "share" mode so many users can use it at
once.

However, even though it's set for sharing, it still won't allow more than
one user at a time.

Any ideas?

Thank you, Jack

Hi Jack,

Check the Folder level permissions where the shared database file resides.
To ensure it's not a problem with the file try copying the database file to
your local computer and opening it using 2 instances of Microsoft Access.
Most likely you'll see that the database file opens fine in more than one
instance on your local computer. Thereby, it's a problem with the Folder
permissions where the database file resides.

I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.
