Charlotte,

" I'm not about to build an elaborate front end updater ... "

Tony Toews relays this information which may be of help:

See http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/terminalserver.htm

" The solution was to update my Auto FE Updater to support 
  directory naming by userid so you can put individual FE 
  MDB/MDEs in their own directory."

Subject: [AccessD] Access 2007 on a network

I've got a beta deployed on a citrix network.  Shared drive with enterprise
and I own the folder.  I'm getting reports of people not able to log in from
elsehwere in our network.  And I'm seeing corruption as a result of their
efforts. I use an mdb in 2002-2003 format.  I just want them to be able to
explore the thing, and I can't duplicate the issues from my machine going
into the same shared folder and just running it.  IT doesn't support Access
and wouldn't know how to start.  All of use basically run off of citrix
drives unless we specifically save stuff to C:  Our "desktop" in on a
personal enterprise drive, so having them copy it there might not make any
difference; and anyway, I'd have to make sure they all got the latest build
every day!  I'm not about to build an elaborate front end updater for
something that will evolve away from Access as some point, especially when
they still have nailed down all their requirements.

Any suggestions (keep it clean, please.  I'm a Buddhist)

Charlotte
