I have a database in Access 97 which is shared across an NT network. When a user tries to quit a message appears saying:
Couldnīt save;currently locked by user "nnnn" on machine nnnn"

This is followed by:

"The saved operation failed"
"Out of memory"

According to Microsoft TechNet the first message only applies to Access 2. Does anyone have any ideas? Any help gratefully received.

Look for code that is trying to save something. You may be trying to save an object rather than a record. If the object you are trying to save is being used by someone else, you will get an error.
