Hi all,

I've built a multi-user (approx 150) data entry split db at work. It's been running fine for about 3 weeks but today I came accross 'could not update; currently locked' error.

Each user has a front end stored locally on their c drive & back end on a network drive.

The users only have access to add new records and not even see or be able to get to historic records.

I do have an autonumber field which increments upon each new record.

I've managed to fix this error for now by copying the BE and re-linking it to the front end but how can I prevent this happening again.

Many thanks in advance.

Chris
 
Looking into record locks it was set to no locks.

Also I found out that someone else in the office has copied the FE & BE from the network drive to self teach themselves Access.
