Unable to open Access database

[Rasesh]

I am trying to open one access database which is saved on
the novell server on two different computers at the same
time.

On one computer it open up succesful but when i try to
open on another PC it say file not found or you can say it
does not allow me to open on anoter computer.

Can you help why it is just allowing me to open on one
computer instead of two computers.

Thank you,

Rasesh

I have encountered similiar problems when using a front-
end, back-end set up for an access dB where the drive
mapping for the different PC's was different. The
database was unable to locate the data tables and caused
problems. The solution for me was to relink the tables
using the entire path to through the server instead of
going through the mapped drive.

Hope this helps.

I have run into this before myself. The issue wasn't the
link but the properties of the file folder residing on the
network. Ensure all users have modify rights, not full.
If the users don't have modify rights, they won't be able
to add/create records in the file folder, vertually
shutting down the users ability to update any file.
