Sure. You can simply put it on a server. It is a good idea to split it into a front end and a back end. Here's a quick read on it:

it already is on a server but when i open it on my comp and my supervisor opens it on his it denies use to one of us saying that its currenly in use...

That sounds like a file server issue - ?

Follow-up -

You may try: Tools->Options->Advanced Tab and then make sure the 'Default open mode' is set 'Shared'.

Hum... Have you tried to do a real simple database? Maybe see if any others (other than the one person you've tested it with) can open it while you have it open?
