title: maximum number of connections to network accessed Access database
body: <p>If I have a Microsoft Access 2007 database on a network location, is there a limit to the number of client computers that can use the database? The client will not have Access installed and instead will be using the Access Runtime 2007.</p>
  
  <p>Will the maximum number of connections be changed if I split the front end from the back end as opposed to everyone simply accessing the file directly over the network?</p>
  
  <p>I am aware that the approach described here is not ideal. I would not have designed it this way, but I gotta support it. Part of knowing how much the current design can take is knowing how many concurrent connections it can handle. Any information is appreciated!</p>
