Access 2000 locks file from VB

[Hubert Hoffman]

I have a VB 6 app that uses ADO. I set up and ODBC DSN to
an Access database. The application connects and is able
to update the data base UNTIL:

Another access2000 user open the database, and opens a
form within the data base. Once the form is opened, I am
unable to get the ADODB.Open function to work. As soon as
the user closes the form in access everything work again.

Has anyone experienced this, and is there a recommended
solution?

Thanks in advance,

Hubert Hoffman
