"MSAccess is not designed to be accessed over the network by multiple staff at the same time." Actually, it is, that's what those ".ldb" files are for. It's not necessarily a good idea, though, since, in my experience, those data corruption issues you mentioned get worse when accessing Access DBs over a network.

Exactly, I didn't say "not possible" I said "not designed". I was a beta tester for the original MSAccess release. It was designed to be a user-friendly GUI client for external SQL databases, and originally wasn't supposed to have its own data storage.
