Jet Won't Open

I get the following error when I write any code against a connection that is
hooked to an Access database:
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file
'C:\Inetpub\www root\TimeTracke r\Data\TimeTrac ker.mdb'. It is already opened
exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
Does anyone have any idea what to do about this?

First, can you open the DB manually? If not then the problem is much more
serious. If you can then check out this KB Article:\

Auuuughhh! I've tried everything suggested in this message and anything
related I can find on Google, but STILL I can't open Access from .NET to
save my life!!

Maybe the suicide rate among programmers would drop a little if we all just
acknolwedge that Acess CANNOT be used from .NET. Thanks for trying.

Hi Curt:

Access can definitely be used from .NET ;-). Have you verified that you an
open it manually? If so, then create copy the Db to your local machine to
like the C:\ drive and create a desktop app. Then use the DataAdapter
connection wizard, it will ask you for a connection, set it up to point ot
the local file on C and test the connection. It should connect. If it does,
then it's most likely a permission problem. If not, then the DB is the
problem, maybe its corrupted (although if you can open it manually then it's
not a corruption).

Let me know.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
