We are trying to evaluate the use of SQL Server as a back-end and
although the system works with a very small number of users we are
encountering difficulties when the number rises to about 8-10. If we
cannot overcome these we will revert to Access back-end.
If we are successful, the licenses will be acquired for Enterprise
edition. There is no intention of violating licences. We do however
wish to test the system fully before advancing.
As I said in my original post, I am happy to explore the problem in
another post. I just wanted to eliminate the possibility that the use
of the Developer version was contributing to the problem.
