Hi, jeebeedoo!<br />
<br />
I think, that LDB file not created because database opened in exclusive mode. If users can open this database form Access menu, they can set &quot;Exclusive&quot; check box in &quot;Open&quot; dialog window and lock this database for others.<br />
<br />
Best regards,<br />

If Dedushkas suggestion does not help try looking into these users permissions on the directory where your mdb is located. A common mistake (I have done it myself) is to think that the users does not need create permissions - they do. <br />
If your users can't create files in the directory Access will not be able to create the ldb file and other users will be prevented from entering the database (like if it was opened exclusivly)<br />

The users can't open the file in exclusive mode, but the answer provided by Trygve seems to be the only logical answer because the users can't create files in the directory.<br />
<br />
Thanks anyway<br />

LDB file not created

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.
