I suspect this is a pretty basic question, and I also suspect I know the right answer, but would like some confirmation.
I have created a database that will store various features of our product. I have a backend that contains the tables.
I was in the process of creating one front end that would allow the user to both enter and access the data. But, my sleepless thoughts wandered last night and made me wonder if would be better to have to separate front-end apps - one for entering data. I could have it open directly to the form for entering data, and it would change very infrequently. And, then a separate front-end app for accessing/searching the data. I anticipate this one has the potential to change more frequently.
Also, I would have the users put the front end for entering data on their personal drives; whereas I would like to keep the search one on the network drive. What is the risk in doing that?
Thanks! Kind of new to this
