hello group! I have a form that runs a make table query on close. I get
the error " The database engine could not lock table 'maintenance' because
it is already in use by another person or process." I have a form that
reads from the same table in the background, is this why? Is there a work
around to this?

Thank you,

Troy
 
Close the other form first. You can open it again afterward if necessary.
