Can't Close db

A

Aria

I have a db on a flash drive. I haven't had many problems but this time when
I tried to open it, it won't open. When I tried to delete the lock file I
receive the following message,"It is being used by another person. Close any
programs that might be trying to use the file and try again."

I am the only one using it at the moment. I shut down all open programs. I
was able to make a copy of the problem db and open that copy just fine. I
thought once I was able to do that I could delete both the lock file and the
db, but it won't let me delete either.
Open to suggestions...

<horrified> I am *so* sorry my second post came across as flippant. That is
not what I meant *at all*. What I meant to say was my question did not really
pertain to Access but rather my having computer related issues so I didn't
want anyone to concern themselves with my question. Having re-read it, I can
see how it may have been misconstred. I was racing the clock and just wanted
to post quickly. Again, my apologies.
