We are sharing access over 2 pcs with the data being held on a 3rd pc. The system keeps crashing when two people are working in the database at the same time

    So, please help me understand.

    Person A opens the copy of the accdb on Person A's computer and starts working.

    Person B opens the copy of the accdb on Person B's computer and starts working.

    At some point, both copies close? Person A's copy closes? Person B's copy closes?

    What kinds of specific error messages are displayed for these "crashes"?

    II assume the database is split and each user has their own copy of the front end. Are both users wired into your network or are they using WiFi connections?
