[AccessD] Is form open in another database

Francisco,
thanks for the quick response :)
I have 3 disputable forms(e.g. frmA, frmB, frmC), and have a couple of
users(1 user on each machine, e.g. PC1, PC2, PC3, PC4, PC5). The solution
might be to create files for each active form for each machine(e.g. A4.txt,
A5.txt then the form frmA is active on PC4 and PC5) and when the form is
closed then to delete the appropriate file. I think it'll be the best
solution because there is just a couple of forms and users.
Maybe someone can suggest a better solution, to make less files and to check
are files empty?
Many thanks for the idea, best regards,
    Ervin
