Creating an Access Database that all users can update

Can I create an access database -that any user can add to add anyone time

I have a form that I wish people to add to and this may be at the same time.

RE: creating an Access Database that all users can update

Hi Jenny

Thanks for getting in touch. Access was designed this way from the ground up. There are a few methods available to you dependent on what's available to you.

This Microsoft article lists your choices very clearly with pros and cons for each. For the least amount of hassle storing the database in a shared folder / network drive is the most straightforward.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards

Access tip:

Modal forms

If you have created a form / switchboard and dont want people to get away from using the switchboard, you can change the form properites for Modal to On.
