A2007 problem on Vista multiuser DB

[egeo]

Hi,

I have a A2007 application (ported from A97) running on Vista and
Office 2007 Pro. I use two computers in a LAN. The application itself
is devided into two DBs (program and data). I have installed the
program-DB on both machines and the data-DB on one (server) of them.
The same configuration worked well on the former systems (XP pro and
A97).

Now there come up the following symptoms:

Starting the application on the server workes fine. But when starting
the application on the client (when on the server its still open (and
at least one data bounded form is open) I cannot open any databounded
form on the client. No error message ist put out, but the application
does not connect to the linked data. As soon as I close the app on the
server the client connect immediately.

Has anyone any idea about this?

Is the first machine opening the db in exclusive mode? Do the users of both
computers have read/write/create/delete permissions in the shared folder,
both at the NTFS level and the share level?
