Hi,

I want to delete an mdb but am prevented from doing so by
a message saying another user has it open. I know no-one
else is using the mdb but think it has become corrupted
somehow. I just want to delete it. Any ideas how i can do
this ? I can't delete the ldb either.
 
Open the .LDB in Notepad. It will show you which PC name(s) has the
file locked. Get that(those) PC(s) to reboot and all the locks should
be released. This is assuming that you have the correct permissions to
delete files from that folder.
