| | Duplicate File name with remote users name appended Hi Can Any One Help? I am using windows live sync to share a small database between my home office and 5 remote users who all have broadband & mobile broadband.. I have set my Server with a live share username & password ( eg : myserver@xxxxxx ) I have setup up a live share folder called " Data1" and put in the Access database called ( Followup.mdb ) I have set Guest Permissions and Anonymous user access with READ / WRITE / Modify / Read & Execute permissions. The database " followup.mdb " is 54Mb in size. I have created accounts for each of the 5 users... myuser1@xxxxxx on laptop 1 myuser2@xxxxxx on laptop 2 myuser3@xxxxxx on laptop 3 myuser4@xxxxxx on laptop 4 myuser5@xxxxxx on laptop 5 all users have their own passwords and do not know the server account password. I have at the Server configured the folder and added all the above users as Editors Each users has connected and the file has uploaded. Each users has made changes to the database and I can see changes back at the server .... HOWEVER just recently users are complaining that the changes are not be made back to the server on some days and are on the others and that the work they did the previous day is not their but they can see changes made by the other users ... repeated problem by the other users. These extra files are now seen in the share folder on the server. Original file = followup.mdb New File1 = followup-myuser1@,laptop1.mdb New File2 = followup-myuser4@,laptop4.mdb NewFile3 = followup-myuser2@,laptop2.mdb followup-myuser2@,laptop2(2).mdb ... these were made 3 days apart. when I look at these files they are a full copy of the database to that user name and contain the data that is missing from the master followup.mdb but do not contain the data done by another user on the same day after the creation of the duplicate file nor any data after the file creation. Sorry its long winded ... anyone seen this. I do not get this with any other file... I popped some control docs in their and fax templates and email sig's. Thank you. |
