When I try to open a database on two different computers, I get an error
stateing that the file cannot be open because it is already in use. How do
I correct this?

The database's default open is shared and it is not open exclusively.

Under the properties of the file itself, nothing is checked for readonly,
hidden or archive.

Thanks in advance for your help!!

Your question suggests that the mdb is on a shared folder. All users need
full permissions on the folder in order to use the database. This is so the
associated ldb can be created/deleted. Without full permissions, the first
person will not be able to create the ldb and the mdb will open exclusively.
