I installed the forum with access database,I want a lot of users(such as 1000 ) to post at the same time to discuss something. I don`t know whether the forum support it. ( I don`t have the sql.)

I'm no expert but I seriously doubt it. 1000 concurrent users is a HUGE amount, you will need something more powerful than Access to run that kind of database. Let alone the server to run that beasty on.

More that 30 you are killing yourself.
And 1000 Concurent users is VERY big... 200 is for very very good board.

Having 1000 users hitting the database at EXACTLY the same time would be very nearly impossible (notice I did say nearly). You would have to have 1000 users who start up the forum at exactly the same moment to all hit the database at the same time.
Access 97 does not handle as many concurrent users as 2000, but if you've got SQL Server 6.5, why aren't you using that? Snitz should be able to work with 6.5 since I don't think there is THAT much difference between 6.5 and 7, which this site is running on...

6.5 doesn't support Unicode like 7+ does, which presents big problems for foreign language sites.
Access has a maximum connection count of 250.
