When I try to connect to Access DataBase I get this on my browser:

The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file
'D:\chessleague\db4.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user,
or you need permission to view its data.

Can you help me?

Based on the error message I can assume that either there is an application that
opened that db or that you do not have sufficient rights for that file...

Check file Properties->Security tab if your login has sufficient rights there...

Hello, Miro!

H> Could someone have that file opend in excel or something as well?

Yes, any program that opens that file as database ( using Jet database engine ), can lock it so other
users will not be able to open it.
