Record Lock Help

I have a database with a Front End and a Back End.

The Front end (containing all the forms, querys, reports, etc) all
reside on each individual PC. The backend resides on a network drive.

Currently there are 12 users who are potentially using this at one
time.

There is a continuous form where the users enter their time. Often
they recieve the message "Could not update; currently locked". I have
read other threads on this issue, but I have not really ready anyway to
fix this.

Any suggestions?

Brad
