Hello
I designed a database which is split into a frontend (which every user has stored locally on his c drive) and a backend (which is stored on a shared drive/server). I originally programmed it under Windows 2000 professional and everything worked fine. A few days ago every user upgraded to Windows XP. What now happens: When a user opens up the frontend he can access/view the linked tables from the backend database, so that works. But when I want to open the backend database directly in access to add a new table or so I can not open it. A message box pops up which says: "The Microsoft database jet module stoped the procedure because you and another user tried to change the same data at the same time." I made sure that nobody is in the database, even restarted my pc,...always the same message.
Has anybody a hint what this could be or what I am doing wrong? Tried to find help in the access help files but still I don't understand why it worked under Win2k and now it doesn't.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
