I recently develped a table and database on microsoft
acces and entered in a large amount of data. I think
what happened is that it was opened by 2 users (we have a
shared network). When I went back to get the data base
it said that the file was not found. All that is left of
the database is an .ldb file. How can I get my data
back? Please Help!!

Something *else* happened. Access is multiuser by default; just being
opened by two users will NOT cause a database to disappear. I'm
guessing that somebody (acting in ignorance, not in malice, I hope)
deleted the .mdb file, perhaps not realizing that it was shared.

Look in the Recycle Bin on the drive where the database resided and
see if it can be recovered. If it's not there, you may be out of luck
unless you have backups.
