I am trying to import or link some paradox tables in MS Access. I have already copied my entire paradox database locally and am trying to connect locally. I am not sure what version of Paradox i am using, though the application that uses this database is Timeslips 2008 if that helps anyone. I am able to import/link one table named "slptrans" successfully, but when i try to import or link another table named "name" i get the error "Could not lock the table 'NAME'; currently in use by user '(unkonwn)' on machine '(unknown)'." I don't understand this. If i'm trying to access the database locally and there is no one else connecting to this copy of the dB how could it be locked?
