Making changes on the exact same copies on split database. Trouble

[Lifeseeker]

Hi,

My database is split into front and backend.

The way it's set up is that there are two front end copies. One for the administrator and one for the general users.

There are multiple general users. When two general user's copies are opened, any changes made to the database by anyone such as sorting record in databasheet from A to Z and saving such configuration, or designing forms and stuff(simply right-clicking design tab) is not possible as users will get a warning msg saying that you don't not have exclusive access to the database because there is another copy opened somewhere else.


Is there a way around this without saving different copies for EACH general user?

THanks for any comments and thoughts on this

No. Each user need to have their own local copy of the front end. Having multiple users share the same copy is going to lead to problems, including increasing the probability of corruption.
