Hello, I originally posted this in the XP forum, but was told to repost it here.
I am basically wondering what I can do to enable multi-user access to an access database (similar to this post http://www.computing.net/answers/of... The only thing is I am using Office 2007. Is it possible and if not, can anyone point me to the last office that it was possible in? Thanks in advance!

I answered your original post. Take a look over there. I also believe I let you know about the Database Forum, and that in the future, that might be the better place for an Access question.

I reposted it here because the original post was removed. I also responded to your post saying that I did not create the database and it is already very populated. I just want to know if what I am asking is possible.
I am not double posting.
