Russ I realise that Access has a problem (which is why everything is being slowly converted to MySQL). There are about 350 *separate* Access databases (yes, that's databases, not tables), each one related to a different town/region. And the bloody thing is live!
What I'm trying to do is to allow plenty of overall access to the site (they won't all be wanting info on one town at the same time), by keeping that main 'simultaneous connections' setting at 100 and perhaps limiting connections on each mdb to 5, or lower. Any further thoughts as to whether the architecture in CF is going to barf if I set it up this way?
