Hi Tim,
Sometimes Mapinfo does not close properly, leaving an instance of Mapinfo
running (although you will see no evidence of this on your desktop). This is
particularly common when running a VB/MapBasic/MapInfo application that
crashes or locks up. This can cause the message you listed to be given.
Try bringing up the Task Manager (ctrl-alt-delete) and end any instances of
Mapinfow.exe.
Or the problem could simply be that you have a shared table that is being
edited on another PC.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Pete, Ordnance Survey, UK

Subject: MI "Another User" error
Hello,
Can somebody shed some light on the following problem:
When trying to edit a table, an error is returned saying "Unable to create
new table. Cannot perform edit. Someone else is currently editing this
table." Some messages say, "Problem with *.TIN...."
The PC is networked (WIN95/NT), but it doesn't matter who is logged on or if
the PC is not logged on at all. It happens with all tables, with all
workspaces, and in both MI 4.5 and MI 6 beta. It happens whether you are
trying to move an object, create a new object, copy a table, etc.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
