Opening multiple instances of a MS access file?

Sure. Just open two instances of access by clicking the icon to start Access instead of clicking the database file itself. Then within each instance of Access open the Database from the file menu.

    is there a way to simultaneously 2 or more instances of the same MS access file on one computer? I need to do diff things on the same database.

    Thanks a lot.

    Tam.

    I didn't mean to copy the database, I meant open two instances of Access.
