what happens when more than one applications access same ACCESS db locally?

Say: I have 3 applications running at same time which all communicate to the same ACCESS db on my C:\ drive. If I modify the data on one application, commited the change to db, will the data displayed in rest 2 applications be automatically updated If not, do I need an extra update/refresh functions in every application so that I can manually update the data shown on rest 2 applications when they are changed in one application

plz help

    No, other applications will not be updated. Your applications only retrieve data from the database when you tell them to, so if you change data from one application, other applications would have to retrieve the changes from the database.
