Is it an Access 97 database & they are opening it in A2K? I had this problem all the time because I used 97 & when I would make changes & compile the database, the users of 2K would get that message. They should only get the message once, the next time they open it they won't get that message (unless you go in & compile, etc again). Virginia -----Original Message----- From: Steven W.

Try again when the database is available." The user on machine XXXX doesn't open the database exclusively. I've checked her Access settings under Tools | Options | Advanced. The Default Open Mode is Shared, not Exclusive. Could you help me with this one?
