Friends,

Our company uses an Access db (.mdb) in a network shared folder. Four
employees use this db. Sometimes two or more employees have no problem
simultaneously sharing access to the db.

However, on an intermittent basis, an employee trying to access the db will
be prevented from doing so, and the following error message appears: "The
databae has been placed in a state by User Admin on machine _____ that
prevents it from being opened."

We have set all Tools/Options to multi-user and record level locking. Why do
we get this error message and how can we prevent it?

Thanks!

Bill Morgan
