How big is the backend? I can't imagine that the backend would be that
large with three people tracking credit requests.

You could perhaps enlist the three people in your approach to IT. Their
jobs will be affected without the database, right?

Also ensure that you routinely compact the backend. Since you are posting
in the security group, and have already asked some questions about security,
you should know that you shouldn't run the splitter wizard on a secure
database. That will result in a secure frontend and unsecure backend.

on users desktops,,tables in server.The itd group has stated only a limited
amount of space is reserved per department on the server.This DB is used to
track credit requests and without the three people being joined to the same
tables to run reports and run queries, the purpose would end up useless in
tracking all these requests.Are there any options to this scenario or have i
hit the wall with this idea and i am at the mercy of the itd group?thanks
for the shoulder to cry on,,,,,,,,
