Access Split Database - Others cannot lauch database from UNC

I have an access database that has been split and resides in the
network share.

When the access database is currently being updated by someone, and I
try to open the database, I cannot open the file by double clicking on
the database filename, for example, \\sharename\testdb.mdb

I have to launch MS access, go to the file, then open the file from
within MS Access.

BUT If no one has the file open, I can double click the database from
the UNC

Any ideas??

solved a multi-user problem by setting
"the secure server, which is outside our network server's domain, (as)
a "trusted site" for file access"

If you are using https:// this might be relevant.
