I have a small network and if my price list is open on on computer one of the
others cannot open it. If that computer opens first then there is no
problem.

What do you mean by "can't open it"? Does it fail to open, or do you get an error message?

This can be cause by Windows permissions problems. Make sure all users have Read/Write/Create/Destroy permissons on the
folder hosting the database.

Is the database split? Typically this would be the preferred scenario: Split database, with all users having their own
copy of the frontend, and each of those copies connected to the same backend. Access provides the Splitter Wizard to do
this for you.
