Hi,

Where I work, there are various programmers that program for a single, large database with many forms, tables, reports, and VBA code. To prevent issues during programming, we use a checkout system, in which the current programmer working on the database marks a spreadsheet to indicate to the other programmers not to open or work on the database. Does anyone know of a more efficient system where multiple programmers could work on a database and merge changes when finished? Are there any off-the-shelf products that offer something like that?

Thanks.
 
Why not simply open the database in exclusive mode ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
