This is probably a mdl file (l not 1). A mdl file is always present when somebody has opened the database file, in this case the security file. In this file all locks are kepded and is needed for Access to operate. This does not cause any lockouts for users unless some bad programming or other (security?) issues.

Now Access is being rude to me. I recently moved the security file that controls my database from each person's own hard drive to a centralized location on the network. Every couple of days, the security file named rb.mdw has a friend, rb.md1, locking out most of the users. Does anyone know what this is and how to prevent it? Thanks. -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
