Are you working with a MDB or MDE file?

What happens when you open the file?

If it's a MDE, you will not be able to "unlock" it, but you can open open
the file and work with it.

The lock on the icon that you see indicates to me that you are looking at a Locking
Database File (.LDB), not a database file (.MDB or .MDE). Click on View > Details. Is
this file fairly small--in the range of 1 KB?

See the following KB article for more information:
