A few reasons NOT to do it that way:
Having multiple folks simultaneously hitting the same FE file could lead
to poor performance
Each person opening the application will have to have the server "send"
all the pieces (forms, ect) over the network -- your network gurus are not
going to be very happy.
If ANYONE accidentally powers off in the middle of an Access operation
(or kicks his/her power cord out), or the power glitches, there's a very
good chance the FE-on-LAN and maybe even the BE-on-LAN could get corrupted.
With all these issues, why risk it?!

I am ready to split a database. I know the general rule is for the FE to be
loaded on each users computer. However, my question is, if all the users
will
be using the exact same forms and reports and not creating their own,
could
you put the BE and FE in separate folders on the same network drive and
let
them create a shortcut to the FE? If you did that would two users be able
to
enter data into the same form at the same time?
