Hi Shree,
If the LDB file does not disappear then it could be related to a couple of
things
- Corruption. The database file is experiencing corruption. See: ACC2000:
How to Troubleshoot Corruption in a Microsoft Access Database
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;306204
- User does not have the appropriate Folder Level permissions where the
database file resides. Example:
+ Database resides in the folder \MyFolder
+ User has the folder rights of Create\Modify\Read but
NOT Delete
+ User opens the database in the folder \MyFolder and LDB
file is created
+ User then closes the database in the folder \MyFolder
and because he does NOT have Delete permissions for the Folder \MyFolder
the LDB file remains
- Another user has the MDB file opened
For details on the LDB file see: ACC2000: Introduction to .ldb Files
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;208778
I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.

| Hello!
| I have a question about the ldb file that gets created
| every time you open an Access database. My understanding
| was that the ldb file closes on its own when you shut down
| the database. I have closed my database yet I see the lock
| file still lingering in my folder. Can any one suggest to
| me as to how to make it go away?
| Thanks in advance.
