Can you create the new database in the same folder as the original one
that you can't open?   That would prove you have file create access
there that you and yoru users need to have in order to create the ldb file?
I know you said you could create a new blank DB with the user account but is
it in the same network location?  Perhaps they removed some update ability
for your user level accounts.
