MS Access row locking

Hi all,
   I'm using MS Access as my database, I want to make the MS Access to be shared in a small LAN (2-3 workstation). Is it possible to do a row locking using MS Access. So other people is not allowed to do update (except query) when other people is doing updating. Or is there any other way to control my database. I'm developing my application using Visual Basic.


Thanks in advanced

True row locking is not possible in Access...
but you might look into the Pessimistic locking for records...
