Hey,

How can I make the database to that only one person can open it at a time. We want anyone else getting into to get a message telling them they cannot open the file.

Thanx

A little more information would be helpful. What is this database for, are multiple users putting information into it? I assume you don't want more than one person at a time making changes or inputing data?

I believe whomever opens the database first will have full access. If a second person attempts to open it they should get a warning message that the database is in use and they can "view" it, but can not make any changes.

It is a database that is accessed by multiple people in multiple locations. They only want one person making changes at a time.
