Basically we can only open the database on one PC at a time. The database is 
set to "shared" and set to "no locks" and "open databases using record level 
locking". There is nothing setup in security in security for the database. The 
share has full control for "everyone"  and doesn't inherit permissions. The 
weird thing is that we use this file once a year, we clear it out every year of 
its data, rename it and its all good. I tried grabbing an older version of the 
file from a few years back and I have the same problem. Of course this is now a 
high priority and I will be working on this through the weekend because its 
needed for our biggest fundraiser. :-\

  Subject: Quick MS Access Question


  I have 4 notebooks. One has a share and in that share is a MS access file. 
The notebooks can open the database fine but not if the note with the database 
has it opened first. The file isnt getting opened exclusivly. Any ideas?
