Database has been locked?

A friend gave me her database to help her with (she barely knows access but has
been developing this for a while) .

When I try to import or export the forms (or even cut & paste them) I get this
message:

'The database has been placed in a state by user "Admin" on machine "XYZ" that
prevents it from being opened or locked.'

I have looked at the security stuff and I just can't see where this has been
"placed in this state"?? She sayss he never put a password on it - does anyone
have any ideas why I would have this problem?

Thanks in advance for any help!
 
Holly,

See my reply in macros newsgroup.

Just a hint for the future... If you really feel it is important for
your post to appear in more than one newsgroup (in practice, it is
seldom necessary), please cross-post (i.e. address the same message
simultaneously to both groups), rahter than multi-post (i.e. send a
separate copy of the message to each group). Thanks.
