can I use access 2000 to creat a multiuser program?

I believe that you mean a multi-user data base. Access would be the "front end" program that users use to "access" the Access program. SQL is usually the "back end" program at the server that the actual data base sits on.

Yes you can create multi-user applications using Access 2000 and Visual Basic code. Using a combination of tables, forms, queries, and other objects you can create a very professional looking product. This is a very complex subject and if you wantto get familiar a good place to start is with a book called Beginning Access 2000 VBA by WRONX Press. No, I don't work for WRONX and don't know the guys who wrote it. However, I waded my way through it and have written some very complex and user friendly programs that run on large networks with multiple users.

You are talking about a lot of learning and a lot of work.
