Typically splitting a database between a front-end and a back-end will
allow two or more users to connect to the same database without issue.
Should you move to a larger environment - or just have time to enjoy
such an exercise - you may find you have to transition to the use of
unbound forms.

The front-end will contain the forms, reports, macros, queries, etc...
while the back-end contains all of the tables. The front-end - so as
to have access to the tables - is linked to the back-end. The front-
end is then installed on the user's computers - each user having their
own copy of the front-end which is then linked to the data.

When the users then log in to use the DB they should both then be able
to work simultaneously without issue.

I doubt Oko can explain about "ADO server" because there is no such thing.
ADO, ActiveX Data Objects, is an _access method_ based on the OLEDB
technology. The classically-used DAO is the native language of the Jet
database engine, is (most think) simpler, easier-to-learn, faster in
operation, and easier-to-use with Jet (which is what you are talking
about)... there may be, in some cases, minor advantages to using ADO with a
true server database engine. Jet is, however, a file-server.

I suggest you visit http://office.microsoft.com and follow the links to the
free online training, as not knowing that Access is multi-user enabled right
out of the box, even unsplit*, indicates you need rather basic
training/education before proceeding.

* however, splitting, as Oko suggested, is _preferrable_ for a number of
reasons.

MVP Tony Toews' site http://www.granite.ab.ca/accsmstr.htm has a wealth of
information on using Access in a multiuser environment, and there's a list
of a few other of the better-known resource sites at
http://mail.ntpcug.org/accesssig/default.aspx. Those, or searching the
archives of this newsgroup at http://groups.google.com will lead you to many
more.

Good luck with your project.
