Hi...I have a DB that links to an excel spreadsheet which is updated daily from another system, the link to the Excel sheet is then updated using Linked Table Manager, the DB and the excel workbook are both on the office server with a shortcut to the DB on each users desk.
It looks like there is a limit to the number of users who can be in the the DB at the same time, they are able to open the DB but when it gets to 4 users on at the same time the any one who opens it after that is able to but the subform containing the data fromthe linked table turns white and shows no data.
The DB itself is very simple the users simply see a list of their clients and the associated debts, its the debts that are the linked table.
Would anyone know if there is a restriction on the numberr of users that can work on a DB at any given time, that uses data linked to an Excel workbook.........as always any help is much appreciated...cheers Fi
