Sharing Access

[Robin Lumley]

Have a peer to peer win98se network, & would like to share Access DB on both
machines so they can both edit/input & save simultaneously same time what do
I need to do to allow this ?

Access is designed to do this, so go ahead and place the file in a folder
that is shared will full access.

For best results, split the database into two mdb files. There is a wizard
to do this for you:
Tools | Database Utilities | Database Splitter
