FE/BE Question

ALV
Hi,

I have a database in our company Intranet that is being used by a small
group of about 8 to 10 employees. I left the database intact - no split
- but in reading through some of the postings here the concensus is
that such a setup could eventually cause data corruption. I'm using
Access 2000.

I did try splitting the database into a FE/BE setup to test it, but
when I use the FE to access the linked table data via the forms, it
takes upwards of 45 seconds to over a minute before the form opens.
When the database is intact, the forms take only a few seconds to open.

Any ideas as to how this can be corrected? I've done some search in the
Web, but I haven't found much in the way of helpful details, other than
getting some understanding as to what the cause may be.

Thanks for your input, suggestions and time!

There are several things you may need to adjust to get the performance right
on a split database. Tony Toews has a good list at:
