Sometime when I use vb programming a access database, unexpectly,
my vb app shut down , then I can't access that .mdb
any more, it says some other app open the file exclusively
and lock it. how can I solve this problem and avoid this kind of thing happen again?
Thanks a lot.

Which version of Access are you using?

It's version 7.0
There is a property 'exclusive' for the data control which you can set to False (multi-user) on loading form.

data control. Is it just a property to set,or I have to
use a function to open database.
Thanks.
