This may not be what you mean. But: the "Jet" database engine which comes with VB can easily share Access databases (and others, depending upon your installed drivers). Simply reference the file wherever it resides on the network and open the database. For example, if you have an Access database "MyDatabase.Mdb" which resides on \\John, and "Sarah's" computer has \\John mapped as drive "N:", then opening "N:\MyDatabase.Mdb" will open the database which resides on John's machine from Sarah's machine--and John may be using it as well. With the Jet engine, the sharing is automatic and nearly invisible. As I said, this may not be the point you were making. But maybe it will help.
