Not sure I understand what you mean by that. Unlike, say, SQL Server or
Oracle, Access isn't a server-based DBMS.

Are you saying that you don't have a server, but a peer-to-peer LAN, and the
back-end database will exist on one of the workstations that will also be
used by one of the users? That should work.

If you meant something else, please explain.
