A2003 - Now Single User

| Since we converted our ACCESS 97 databases to ACESSS 2003 they have
become single user only. Does anybody have any idea why this should
have happened, and how it can be resolved?

What do you mean, single-user? Do other people get locked out because
someone has the application opened exclusively? If so, perhaps a
desktop icon has a /excl in it.

Like Salad, I have to ask "What do you mean by single-user?"
If you mean that a user must have exclusive use to modify objects in design
view, that is the way Access works from Access 2000 on.
In Access 97 and earlier versions, multiple users could be logged in,
changing a database from design view. This worked "most of the time", but
could cause (unrepairable) corruption.
If you mean something else, please clarify.
