open for further replies. Advertisement dfriend846 Thread Starter Joined: Aug 11, 2005 Messages: 199 We have an Access "open databases by using record-level locking" database on our network which about 2-3 of us use concurrently. This is not a problem for us. One person cannot access it because of a, "Could Not Lock File" error. ms access lock file The rest of us do not have this problem. Can anyone tell me how to correct this? Is the problem in the person's security or configuration of Access or in the database? Thanks. dfriend846, Sep 13, 2005 #1 Sponsor dfriend846 Thread Starter Joined: Aug 11, 2005 Messages: 199 Here's an answer to the above problem: The users who had problems opening
Ldb File
Access had read only rights for the network folder containing the database. If they were the first (only?) user then there was no problem but if they logged on as a multiple user the program could not create a lock file since they did not have write priveleges. When changed to allow write priveleges the problem went away. dfriend846, Oct 2, 2005 #2 Adeyan Joined: Jan 4, 2007 Messages: 9 Thanks, exactly what i was looking for Adeyan, Jan 4, 2007 #3 glisando Joined: Jun 1, 2007 Messages: 15 I am having the same problem in my workplace too. I just took over the admistration of the database recently. There is a user who always gets the 'could not lock file' error Is giving them 'write' privellages the only way to solve this problem? What if that particular user is not supposed to do any editing of the data, and I end up giving him 'WRITE' privellages? Could it be something to do with the registry settings of the user's notebook/PC? I managed to get some info from this site : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305995 C

Multi User Access Database 2010 couldn't lock file error The db is split, BE and FE. I have 3 admins who have no problem accessing the database and 2 users who can access the db but intermittently. Users can access the db with no errors when the other 3 admins are not running the file. But once the admins are running the db, the 2 users cannot access even from the FE. The error message that comes out is usually error 3045 and couldn't lock file. I have done the following: 1.

I'm not clear if the BE has built in intelligence
