I put a db on my wife’s computer Onedrive. I then signed into her MS account from my computer. I can see the file, but I can’t open it. I then went back to her computer open the file and clicked share. It gave me a dialog box in which I added my email. My email on my computer said you have a shared file from Jenny. I can see the file but still can’t open it. When I hit download, it doesn’t download it anyplace. Anybody have any idea?

----------
Can I sign in with a different account to browse a different OneDrive? You can't switch between accounts in the OneDrive app. When you sign in to a PC with your Microsoft account, you're automatically signed in to OneDrive with that account. You can still get to OneDrive files for a different account by going to the OneDrive website.

Are you thinking that OneDrive doesn't like DataBases. I was thinking that, but then I thought, hey this MS surely OneDrive supports the whole suite.

Just got a surprise. I was able to save the file to my HD, and then open it. The only thing that I can think that is different is that she's in bed and her computer is off. The last 10 tries I had her computer right next to mine and we were both connected to the net. Do you think that makes a difference?

BTW I know MS Access fairly well. If I can be of help let me know.

That seems to be the problem. Picture file and docs open up fine. MS OneDrive, MS db who would have guessed?
