Do not have exclusive access ot the database

[mrnorth]

Just experienced something very annoying which I've never seen before!

Edited a form because it wasn't functioning correctly but it won't let me save it because it says "You do not have exclusive access to the database. Your design changes cannot be saved this time. Do you want to close without saving your changed" - well of course I don't I've just spent ages changing it and fixing it up!

What can I do?

All I can think of is to go around and get everyone else out and try to save it...

Otherwise about all I can think of is to open the form, copy everything, open a new instance of Access, do a new db, new form and copy the stuff over....
