[AccessD] Errors 3045 and 3027

Sounds like permissions on the server rather than an Access issue.

You will get exactly this if the directory allows  Create but not Modify.  

First problem:   No one can  modify the main data file.

Second problem:  The first user in can create the lock file, subsequent users can't modify it 
so can't get in - Access thinks it has been opened "exclusive".  As soon as the first user logs 
out, the lock file is deleted and another user can then log in and create a new one.


Cure:  Give all users nmodify rights on the directory.
