I know that it must be a simple thing but when running my project i get
the error that It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you
need permission to view its data.
But the security setting is not set on this file
Why am I getting this?

If you can help please email me at

Ambershope,

I think that the least we should know to help you for this question is.

What should be exclusivly opened by another user (a database a file or
whatever) and where is that located and what are the securitysettings of it.

Otherwise we get a long messagetread with or a lucky shot or a lot of
guessing.

Cor
Yes it is a database file
I only get that message after I create the connection, adapter, and
dataset.
I can not access the file or call the fill method.
It is located on my desktop on my home pc and it has no security
setting imposed on it.
Actually nothing is working on this project tonoght-lol
Not even a if then - else statement!!!
Long night
Thanks for any help you can offer

Ambershope,

Yes it is a database file

Probably a MS-Access database. Mostly this means that the user has no rights
to that ms-access file (it can be the setting of that ms-access file
individually).

I hope this helps,
