I am using access 2003. when trying to open the applications, it fresszes if
someone has the program open. I have to wait for everyone to close the
application and then the program runs fine again. Any idea on this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Are you - or the other users - opening the database exclusively? Are you
trying to change the *structure* of the database (opening forms or reports in
design view)? Do you have any VBA code in the startup form or called from the
startup macro? This is NOT normal behavior.

Hello John,
Some user does not have full version of Access, and some does. Will the
program affect to the users that have full version of Access vs. none full
version of Access? I am not trying to change the structure of the database
(not in design view). The startup form set to main form.
Thank you

The users without full Access are using... what? If you have the appropriate
Access "developer's edition" and have the runtime version installed, be sure
that it's the same Access version with the same service packs; you my need to
generate a new copy of the runtime.
