We have an Access database stored in a network folder, we then have a number
of users with full permissions to this folder and some users with read-only
permissions. At present a user with read-only permissions only seems to be
able to open the database when no-one else has it open. If they do manage to
open it (i.e. no-one else in it at time) then it locks the file and non of
the other users can access it. If the file is already in use when a
read-only user tries to open it they get an Access error message "Can not
Lock File" Anyone any ideas. Weve tried the database using Access 2000 and
Access 2003.
TIA
