can not open linked table

J

jnaccess

When trying to open a linked table I get an error message that the file is
opened exclusivelyby another user. I have used this link before many times
and have knowingly done nothing to change it. I am using acces 2007 on a
vista lap top to an access 2000 database on a different computer (xp) which
uses access 2000 .

If you are certain that you are the only user, close Access and delete the
LDB file on the remote computer. If there is more than 1 user, 1 or more
have the database opened exclusively. Go to Options on each computer using
the database, and change that.
