Hello everybody!
I have just found out that the sharing properties of a single database (mdb file on a network), accessed by 3 users, change depending on the user accessing the database. That is, with the file opened by 2 users at the same time, in my computer, the sharing properties appeared as set to share (not exclusive) and single entry-lock. Nevertheless, in the computer of the other user, the sharing properties are set to exclusive mode and an all-entries lock. Why, with a single file (neither splitted nor working with linked tables and different files), the Sharing mode change depending of the user? And what is worse, why the sharing properties differ even with 2 users having the database opened at the same time? Is Access trying to make a fool of us??
Best regards from Barcelona

Hello Stewart:
First and foremost: Thank you for your help. It is much appreciated indeed!
Secondly, let me sum up the situation, so as to get the picture clear.
1) As confirmed by the computer ' technicians here, everybody is granted an administrator status in the network. So if, as you confirmed, the permission setting you were talking about has nothing to do with Access itself, then the problem should not be due to the network account.
2) I checked the Access file, once locked its access for the rest of us, opened by the user with this problem. The Tools>Options>A dvanced were as specified: shared status and edited-record lock. Also, the form properties were set as edited-record lock. In short, no changes in here.
3) Could there be any changes in the ldb file, as the session progresses? I mean, is it possible for the ldb to experience any change in its properties? Maybe, if this should be the case (I have no idea), I could check its properties and shed some light on the problem. Anyway, what is clear is that the ldb appears for all users.
4) There is no FE-BE split. I would try to do it and see if there is any improvement. Could the FE-BE division help in here?
Thank you very much in advance
Best regards
Hello everyone!
With the splitting of the database, the sharing problems are over. DB splitting is, therefore, strongly recommended for everyone!

We have applications written by JSP/Servlet and ASP.NET. All our future
development would be based on ASP.NET.
We wants to develop a single user interface so that users would not be aware
that some of the modules they are using are implement by JSP or ASP.NET
(e.g. no need to login both JSP and ASP.NET applications)? Are there any
suggestions to share the session in formation among JSP and ASP.NET, or some

Please pardon my ignorance as this is something I should know, but I'm a

properties forms can be opened. What is the best method for sharing data

I have deployed few Access apps splitting it in Front End and Back
End. Our environment uses Win XP SP2 for clients, Win 2k3 for servers
and Access 2003. The max. number of clients is about 50 (concurrent
users is estimated around 10).
Whilst the Back End always lives on a server, I am not quite clear
where the Front End should live.
I have searched the web and find contradicting views.

Dear All,
Is there a way in which 2 application can share a common memory location to
access static data?
Say for example I have a product master data that is available in a single
place, and I have an application that uses this data to do its own
operation. I also have a similar kind of another application that uses the
same data for its another operation. Can we implement this in C#?
