Access has the potential for 8 simultaneous connections, but 3 of them are reserved for the system's use. That leaves five for users.

What does this mean? I have never heard of any such thing. John W.

The connection here would be a bound form connected by a table link to a table in the BE. But, the connection limit for one BE is 5 FE's. So, will maintaining connections on more than 5 FE's reduce performance? Seems logical, but I was wondering if this is correct or is there more to it? Thanks!
