Hi Punter,
As Cor said, concurrency can be an issue, but, frankly, a small issue. ADO
..net is connecting you in a disconnected state, using dataset/datatables;
so, the last one in makes the change. From a practical point, of view, I
have several such programs using 5 - 15 pc's, and I have no difficulties.
One other thing to be aware of - when you place the .mdb on the server, all
of the workstations have to have .net security modified to allow full
access. Go into control panel, performance and maintenance, administrative
tools; use the .net security wizard and give local intranet full access.
HTH,

At Uni last year we created a VS.NET application which connected to access
database on a single machine, with a full install program.
My question is does this system work well for a networked application, so
for example I would install the program on a couple of machines(only about
2-6) then they try to connect to a single access database on a server. Are
there any problems in doing this? Does the server need any extra files?
Any
comments appreciated.
