I need to have multipule people accessing my form at one time but I keep getting an "unable to lock file" error. I had it work twice and now it will not let me proceed.

Thanks for any help friends
 
Almost certainly, you do not _need_ to have multiple people accessing the
same _Form_ at the same time. It's really not a good idea to have multiple
users logged in to the same monolithic database or front end, because it
significantly increases the probability of database corruption.

Perhaps you have a need to have multiple people accessing the same _table_
at the same time, or the same _query_, using a Form. If you give each person
a copy of the front-end (queries, forms, reports, macros, modules) and share
the back-end (tables with data, relationships) by linking the tables from
the front end, then perhaps you won't have a conflict.
