Hello,
To my amazement I cannot connect to a SQL 2005 Express over a network share.
Now reading through the newsgroups I can understand why this can be a
problem BUT...

HOW does one go about having two PCs read/write data to a centralized SQL
2005 Express Database?

Any help would be GREAT!

The following should help:

Just keep in mind that SQL Express is not a file based database system and should still be operated
in a server based environment (for multi-user access) just like SQL Server.
