I have an Access database on a Windows XP machine. We run
a peer-to-peer network and users who do not have XP on
their machines are unable to open the database across the
network once it has been opened on the XP machine. The
message is "The Microsoft Jet Database Engine cannot open
the file. It is already opened exclusively by another
user, or you need permission to access the data". On our
network, everyone has permission to access (read & write)
files and we do not have this problem with any other
program in MS office or other programs. Any ideas?
