MS Access and VB.Net

[charles.ajs]

Hi to everyone,

I am developing a VB.Net application to which around 10 to 15 users will be connecting, Is it advisable to use MS Access db for this purpose.

Some of my friends say, MS Access db have a problem of data corruption.
Is it real, If so what should I do to aviod data corruption

MS Access data can get corrupted when thee are mutilple, concurrent connections. However no database is completley safe. You coud use MS SQL server, mysql, or any other of the ones out there. But which ever one you choose be sure to back up your database regularly.
