deployment

[icemonster]

what;s the best way to deploy a database? like, when they install the database, it is automatically split and other workstations can automatically link to the back end of the db when they have the front end in their desktops?

What I have done in my project is split the database and leave bothe the front-end and the back-end on the file server. I then created a batch file that the users can click on that copies the front end file to the local PC and start access. I grabbed the idea from foums like this. Let me know of you need a bit more help. That should give you something to chew on, though!
