The database sits on a network and is accessed by mult
users. I was in the database creating a query. I exited
the database but it still thinks I am in it. Now when I
try to open it I get an error 3356. Does anyone know how
to clear it out? I thought if I could delete the
Access.lock.9 file it would remove the lock but I can't
delete it. HELP!!
 
Cindy,

There might be other ways I'm not aware of, but you might
want to give this one a shot: open a new, blank database
and import everything from the old one. This way you'll
get a new, clean, unlocked copy.
