Have a replicated 2003 database on several machines. Recently networked XP
pro machines using small office wizard to share directories and printers.
Once that was done, design master no longer allows changes, saying "You do
not have exlusive access to the database at this time." I ran the wizard
again, removed all shared directories and printers, recovered design master,
synced with replicas, and I had design privelges for about 30 minutes, then
suddenly it gave a message as I was designing report saying "you do not have
exclusive access..."

Any ideas on how to convince Access that this is once again a replicated
database and design master does have exclusive access?

Hi John,

Replication can be a pretty arcane subject; best to post questions like
this in the replication newsgroup microsoft.public.access.replication.
