Multiple User Access To System Db

[jaydwest]

I have developed a database in MSA 2003. It uses a System.mdw that was originally created somewhere in the dark ages (MSA 97 or 2000). Multiple users cannot seem to access it at the same time. This has never been a problem in past projects.

I have created a new System.mdw in Access 2003 and multiple users can access a database using the System.mdw.

So I supposed my mdw is corrupt or simply mdw files created in earlier versions cannot be used by multiple users in MSA 2003.

Has anyone experienced this problem and have any advice?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
