Hi everyone,
I have split up my database the backend is in a shared folder and the front end has been copied onto each users machine (half a dozen users).
It may be necessary for the moment to allow all users to access one shared front end, there are not many users, 6 at the most and not always at the same time - is it possible to have one front end and the users access that one front end on a shared drive ? I'm using ms access with office 365. Ive had a look on the web and the suggestions made below, but having difficulty finding those options
Thanks for any guidance

- Start Access and under File, click Options.
- In the Access Options box, click Client Settings.
- In the Advanced section, under Default open mode, select Shared, click OK, and then exit Access.
Thanks for any guidance
