Sharing MS Access Database with Multiple Users

In this video, I show you how to share an MS Access database with multiple users across a network.

This is perfect if you work in an office environment and can share files across a network such as a shared drive. You will be able to put a copy of the front end on the user's computer with the main backend file on the server for all to access and update.

Hello Master Learn Databases,

Good day,

I hope you are well!

I watch your YouTube videos regarding allowing multi users in MS Access Database.
I have the same issue when I change my computer.

I just want to inquire if you can help me to modify my Microsoft Access Data Base. I think the main issue is giving access to another user.

It just happened that when I get my New Computer, I cannot be able to use this program, but when I work remotely using my old computer all the functions are working properly.

I can’t figure it out how to change the setting or what is the cause of the problem. and please let me know your Hourly rate or a fix rate for helping me to this program.

Thanks,
Levy

Can all users access the system at the same time?

Can people on the front end use their desktop database to add data to the backend?

[stefanogattoCH]

yes this is helpful! Can I do the same, by storing the database on Onedrive instead of a different folder on the same PC or the same LAN?

I am looking for a database program for CMS. Was pretty good at dBase III back in the day but no longer have a copy and am skeptical about eBay old programs. Want to give Access a try. Can anyone tell me what’s the newest version of Access I should buy and what do you think I should pay. TIA.
