How can I set up my Access program to show me what Front Ends (ldb files) are
open at any given time?

Thanks,

LDB files are the locking files, not the front end. There is one on each of
the front and back ends. Each front or back end will have its own LDB file,
so to find out which are open, simply loop through your directory looking
for files with the LDB extension. That isn't entirely accurate though, since
a front-end crash can leave the LDB file open.
