Exclusive Access of an Access database

Hi can anybody help me.
I am trying to access a database I have created, using ADO.

The code is fine but the Jet Engine returns an exclusive Access error

Error tells me that the database is alkready exclusively open by another,
yet i have not opened it.

Have tried altering the access permissions, but still to no avail..

Looking for a break down of how to open a databse without exclusive
permissions

I have encountered a problem that I am hoping someone can shed some light on. I have a multi-user A97 app. All users have a personal front-end MDE accessing a shared back-end. There is no specific MDW file for the app as security rules are housed within the app itself. On a couple of occasions, different users have launched the app only

Can someone please help with this problem. When referring to opening a database in Exclusive mode the Access 2003 help says: "Under Default open mode, do one of the following: If you want others to be able to open the Microsoft Access database at the same time you have it open, click Shared. If you want sole access to the Access database when you have it open, click Exclusive." >From my experience and from what I have read on the...

I have this exact same scenario. It is new and seems to be related to when we installed Adobe 7.0 Standard/Professional. We have an MDB on a LAN file server. Using Access 2K and Windows 2K. When the application is opened by someone, it seems that if one of the Adobe 7.0 (Standard or Professional) users susequently open the application, they get the error - "...You do not have exclusive permissions to the database.

I have inherited a bunch of dbs which are are shared among a small group in my dept. We typically use the dbs to write queries to extract data, usually dumping it into Excel. Most dbs originated in MsAccess 97 or prior and have been converted to 2003. On occassion user 1 will open a db. When user 2 opens the db it will not let user 2 modify macros and what not. I can understand this and realize we could split the db; it is not worth ...

hi Folks, I am opening my access database file (Access 2003) from a C# application. The connection string specifies mode=Share Exclusive The intent is that the application have exclusive access to the database file. No other instance of MS Access or this particular C# application (or any other app) should be able to open the access database file concurrently.

A97. Split database. Frontend DB1.MDB. Backend DB1BE.MDB. Tables are linked between DB1 and DB2. From my testing, if I open DB1 exclusively using /excl the backend DB1BE is not opened exclusively. If I open DB1 but have no tables open and then open up DB1BE exclusively, DB1BE will open exclusive. But if I then attempt to open a linked table in the frontend DB1 I'm informed I can't use the table because the file is in use.

Hello all, When a user starts my app, I run re-attaching code if the links are not valid, etc. In this routine, I then check the version of the back-end database. If the version is off, I run code that then upgrades their back-end db by adding new fields, etc. However, if new fields are needed, I do run a function that I wrote that is supposed to determine if there are other user's in the back-end database. If so, it tells them to...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
