Hi, how do i check in vb.net if other applications is already connected to an access database (.mdb file)? Let's say I have an application that opens an mdb file, for example - test.mdb. Then I opened another instance of the same application and it will also connect to the same mdb file, in this case - test.mdb. What i want is for the application to detect/check/filter that another application is connected to the .mdb file, thus preventing the second instance of the application from connecting to the same file

Thanks in advance :)
