Access Database Sharing

I have downloaded the Music Database Application from
Microsoft to store my cd/media collection. I have a
wireless network in my home. I downloaded the file to my
desktop which is wired to network. I want use a laptop
with a wireless connection to modify the database which is
in a shared directory on my desktop. When I try to open
the database from the laptop I get the error:
"The microsoft jet database engine cannot open the file
\\.... It is already opened exclusively by another user,
or you need permissions to view its data." Any
suggestions on how I can get around this. I did a
download of the file to the laptop from MS site and the
file that is stored on the laptop opens with no problem.
