Is it possible to have an embedded database as a file shared on a network disk and used simultaneously by multiple users (to both read and write)?

Slowness is not an issue, but no database software should have to be installed. Is Microsoft SQL Server Compact appropriate for such a purpose?

    I found this page on the msdn which suggests that version 3.5 and above of MS SQL Server Compact should be o.k. in this scenario.

    To support multiple applications that
    access the same database at the same
    time, SQL Server Compact 3.5 provides
    multiuser support. Multiuser support
    enables multiple users of a database
    to synchronize data without having to
    disconnect the database before they
    use merge replication or remote data
    access (RDA). For more information
    about multiuser synchronization, see
    Multiuser Access and RDA and Multiuser
    Access and Synchronization.

    However I, personally, have no experience with this so could not say for sure if this will definitely work.
