I have several databases that are set up as share dbases, and the tables have
been split from the queries, forms, and reports. I have a front end dbase and
a backend dbase, both of which are set as share applications. The front end
is housed on everyone's individual pc, and is linked to the backend found on
the network. I have not set up any secured workgroup, and I have had IT
change the permissions to the folder where the dbase resides to include read,
write, create, and delete. The users can get in all at the same time, but if
a user exits and would like to re-enter, they receive a "Cannot access, file
is already in use". I was thinking this could be because of delete
permissions- maybe their ldb file was not deleting, so when they went back
in, the system thought they were still connected. But I did double-check the
permissions, and it looked fine. The folder that the dbase is in, is a
subfolder. Would the main folder also have to have all the create, write, and
delete permissions? I've tried creating a new database, and importing
everything (basically starting over), but no luck there. For some reason, I
am still convinced that it is a permissions issue. Could I be getting this
error for any other reason? Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Thank you.
