That's simply the wrong diagnosis. It has nothing to do with the number of
users.

Two suggestions:
Make sure you are explicitly closing and destroying your connections on each

Try switching to the native Jet OLEDB provider rather than the obsolete ODBC
driver. (see www.able-consulting.com/ado_conn.htm for examples of connection
strings using this provider).
