File Types or DB corruption?

When I open an Access 2003 DB in a multi-user mode I get the following error:
"The parameter is incorrect". BUT if I right click on the file name and
select Open With - Microsoft Office Access then it opens up just fine. I
have tried to re-associate the program with the file type but that did not
fix it. It opens fine if no one else is in the database.

AND once I'm in the database and I try to click the Save button it tells me
I don't have exclusive rights and it wont' save my changes but it does save
changes.

Anybody know how to correct this annoying issue? Thanks!

Check the properties of the Icon you are clicking on to start Access.
What does it have after the "\"
 
I usually double click the file name to open the database I need but if I
look at the properties I have for Access on my toolbar it states the
following:

Target:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE"

Start in:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11"
Thanks!
