Do all users need the MS Access Program installed...I am in need of publishing a database by using the BE/FE technique, but was
wondering if all end users must have the Access program installed on their local PC to access the BE? Thanks! Yes.

If there are multiple users accessing the
backend does that create any problems with data entry? My reasoning is, I thought that when you open a database you "lock" down those tables you are currently useing. If that is the case would that not restrict the following users from data entry to those tables? Thanks!

But when just adding data Access works quite well with multiple users.

Thus you only need to purchase Access, which you presumably already have and the runtime software. For A2003 this is the Access Developers Edition contained within Visual Studio Tools for Office.

not all users have Access installed as well. I was of the understanding I would be able to create a web based version running off our W2K3 server. Needless to say I haven't reached that point yet. What did I miss? Is intranet web based data browsing not possible?

Is intranet web based data browsing not possible? it wasn't very practical. Also web based software isn't anywhere near as rapid for data entry or for ease of use.

Microsoft Access Links, Hints, Tips & Accounting Systems at http://www.granite.ab.ca/accsmstr.htm Thanks for the reply. I had come across something for making web pages
inside Access but of course I can't find it now. The project I am working on was strictly lookup for those using non-full Access means. We currently have a job number list stored in a 99 page Excel spreadsheet. Only one person has the responsibility to add. Everyone just looks up job numbers. I'll have to look at the executable and runtime distribution. Marten On Wed, 05 Jul 2006 11:52:15 -0600, Tony Toews <tto***@telusplanet.net> wrote: Show quoteHide quote > >Not using Access.
