Does a (the) .ldb file have to be closed for another user on a network (separate FE linked to network drive BE) to read/write info to a table? Or even select info from a table?

thanks and thanks!
 
Nope! Many users can be in the BE at the same time.
 
Thanks for the reply. Hmmm. Ok, well... can a query lock the BE? I'm trying to isolate why I keep getting the "locked by another user message" (especially when no data is being written/changed to any tables).
 
Do *all* of the users have full permissions to the BackEnd folder?
 
This could be the area that I am most novice about. I don't believe that I have set any restraints on the database or network. I'm not *totally* sure where to check all of that though. ?
 
I should add that the other networked computers have no trouble opening the forms and updating data to tables, etc... But, if they are trying to do it at the same time = fail.
 
Do you have a system admin that could check the permissions? What OS? WinXP? Win7?
