Multiple connections to Access Database?

I'm having trouble with users not being able to access a single Microsoft Access Database at the same time.

When one user opens it up, it says it will open in read only mode because another user has another copy open.

Can I disable this feature?

Thanks

Fixed the problem. The issue was with not only the security permissions to the database but some users had shortcuts on there desktop that pointed to the old server (but same share) I deleted and recreated them.

Thanks for the help
