When i try connecting to my database i get an error.
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file "FILENAME\file.mdb". It is already opened exclusively by another user or you need permission to view it's data.

The error message says it rather well. The file is in use.

If you are sure that it *shouldn't* be in use, check for a *.ldb file. This is the Access db lock file. If you are confident that nothing is actually using the file, delete the *.ldb file and the database should be "unlocked".

The file you mentionned does not exists. This error normally occurs at the start of day when no one has logged into this application and database.
