I have an ADP app that is used only for reporting. The users don't change
or create new reports, they just run the ones that are there. The problem
is that if 2 users have the ADP app open, I get the error,

"The MS Access project 'Name' will be opened read-only because on of the
following occurred."

Is there anyway that I can supress this error, so as not to confuse the
users?

Thanks,

You placed the ADP file in a shared location, didn't you? Try to place ADP
on each user's computer.
 
I have seen that in my searches, but then if I make a change to a report, I
will have to redistribute this app to all users, this sounds like more work
than it is worth, that is why we have it on a share on the server. I mean
it isn't that big of a deal, I just don't want the users getting confused
when it says "Warning!"...

Thanks,

It actually is not a big deal at all. Just set up a logon script in your
domain, and include a command that copies the master copy from a server
share into a directory on the client computer. This way, any change you
make and publish out the the server will automatically be updated the next
time any user logs on.
