Access 'jet database' error message

[Guest]

I am attempting to open an access DB and am getting the following error
message:

'The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and
another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time.'

I need to urgently get into it so that I can updated it and run a set of
reports.

Any suggestions/solutions would be greatfully recieved.

I have the same error in my database. One of my tables I am linked to gets
this error. The table is in a MS SQL Database and was in the process of being
updated when I lost connection to the network drive that contains my Access
database. The table can be updated from the MS SQL Server side but not from
any Access database.

yet another reason to use Access Data Projects (ADP).
it's just much much simpler to keep all your data in one place

MDB linked tables are troublesome; a pain in the ass... and a
performance nightmare
