A2K - MDE hell

Oops. I've left an MDE with someone and now it won't open using the
runtime. It said there was a serious error the last time the program ran.
Can't exactly say what is said as it doesn't bring up that message anymore.

I certainly can't copy the file anymore, it seems locked.

"Cannot copy data.mde. It is being used by another person of program.
Close any programs that might be using the file and try again."

If I try opening it using the Access runtime I get;

"Could not use "M:\Reporting\data.mde'; file already in use"

To be honest they've had problems with that network of theirs and the
various client workstations. Wouldn't be surprised if it was corrupted.

Any options for me? I've checked that they have permissions to copy the
file.

thanks
Martin
