Multi User Form issue

1 New Member
Hello All:

I'm new to this forum and the creation of ms access as a multi user desktop application.

I have created a tool for the end user to enter data elements for counts of incidences on a certain day. To setup this process I have a form that first prompts the user to load the unique satation in which they work. This opens a second form which allows the user to select the appropriate date and then enter the data in the appropriate fields. The problem I have encountered is when multiple users access the form simultaneously the intial load form causes a reopen of the second form so that the first user loses the data on there form. Does splitting the database resolve this issue?

Approx users 17 all of which will not be entering data at the same time the overall goal is a once per day data entry for each of the ~18 stations total data elements to be entered 4

ms access version 2000/2003

thank you for your help

First off, I am mostly familier with PHP but am trying to make a multi-step javascript program. For an example, I would like to run different sections of the script depending on how many times the user presses the submit button: <form method="post" name="step1" action="test.html"> <script language="JavaScript"> var position

Hello everyone, I am having an issue using the "Multi Select" option in a list box in MS Access 2003. I am making a form that users can fill out to add an issue to the database. Each issue can be associated with multiple categories. I have an "Issue," "IssueCategory," and "Category" in the database (among other tables). The form has a subform in it which is tied to the "IssueCategory" table. The main form is tied to the "Issue"...

In my Windows app, if I'm in a multi-line textbox and I'm writing a postal address (ie. write ist line and press <Enter>, write 2nd line and press <Enter>, etc...) how can I make sure that the Enter key will ALWAYS make the cursor jump to the following line in the textbox? For some reason, and this happens everywhere except on my development PC, if a user's writing a line and presses the <Enter> key, the program interprets that as the user...

Hi, I'm relatively new to programming and I would like to create a C++ multi user program. It's for a project for school. This means I will have to write a paper about the theory too. Does anyone know a good place to start looking for some theory on the subject of multi user applications? I know only bits and pieces, like about transactions, but a compendium of possible approches to multi user programming would be very appreciated!

Hi everybody, my company has an issue and I have to solve it. I have to create a multiple users application, its basically a form that stores data on just one database table. To make it faster i wanted to use MS Access because they need it really fast. How do I enable Access 2003 to multiple user? Thanks for any help.

Is it true that if I split my access database in backend and frontend and I implement custom auto increment for the ID fields, that my database is ready to be used in a multi-user environment? I found a zillion messages about auto increment and read some of them but it's confusing. Can someone point me to a simple custom auto increment example that I can download? Thank you, john

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
