It won't work for concurrent users, as Dropbox, OneDrive, etc. not represent an SMB file share as a Windows server does.<br />

If not for concurrent use - with high discipline, for example for work in the office and later at home - OneDrive will work, as it caches the file locally, and changes made to this by the frontend are synced back at once. But concurrent use is a no-go that will corrupt the backend database.

Thanks Gustav. Would you say that OneDrive is a better option than Dropbox, for non-concurrent use? Thanks

Hi<br />
<br />
I want to split my Access database and put the database with the tables on DropBox. Has anyone tried to do this and encountered any problems <br />
with two users in different locations interacting with the backend database on DropBox?

Microsoft Access database - split with tables on DropBox

Databases are organized collections of data, most commonly accessed through management systems including schemas, tables, queries and processes that allow users to enter and manipulate the information or utilize it in other fashions, such as with web applications or for reporting purposes.

Databases

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.
