I am a casual Access user who just ran into a new problem. In a relatively simple database I am suddenly getting messages about the fact that I do not have exclusive access to my database. And I suddenly seem to be unable to save changes made to forms for this reason.

This is a single user database installed on a single user system (Win2000 Pro, Access 2003). I have never set up a user group, users, or anything else like that. Whatever is the default is what it is (unless I inadvertently changed it somehow). I am logged onto my system as the administrator (the only established Win2000 login on this computer).

How did this happen and, more importantly, how can I make this go away?

Thanks.
