I am a network administrator at a Hospital.
An EMS guy created a database to track all the Ambulance calls.
He made it a multi-user database.
The database resides on my network with all the users having the same permissions (Windows 2000 server and workstations).
When one specific user is in the database no one else can access the database.
It gives the Error: Could not use 'Admin'; file already in use.
If she is not in the database (she is not the creator) anyone else can access it, multi-users. There is no security built into the database. They don't have an access workgroup defined or anything. The creator swears it is not his database and it is something network related.....I tell him everyone has the same permissions (rights) to the directory.
He is using Default Open: Shared; and Default Record Locking: No Locks. He has the checkbox selected: open database with record level locking.
I have some Access experience but mostly with SQL backend....letting SQL take care of Security & locking.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks for the assistance.
