Hi,
as an attempt to improve database performance, I have split a MS Access 2003 database. I have successfully split the database and saved the backend onto the server. My question is, where is the front end. or do I have to create it?

Cheers.
Ben

Hello Ben!

FRONT END is the same mdb which was before spliting.

Thanks MStef.

I havn't really noticed a difference in performance since I split the database, and I have created an MBE file for the front end :(

Just for information purposes, when you split a database into frontend and backend, the database you split, as MStef has said, is your frontend. It is the one that contains all your queries, forms, reports, and modules. A second database is created and this contains the tables only. The Splitter Wizard will link the tables in the backend into the frontend.

The frontend can go on a person's machine. The backend should go on the server.

And there was me thinking the Queen was the only one that could do that. It's MDE. ;)
