that which user has opened the mdb file. *Please help

Hi K,

As soon as an Access file is in use by someone next to the mdb you
will see a ldb file.
This file contains Record-Locing Information.
For each user an entry will be added and removed according to start
and stop using the mdb.
Unfortunately there is not a clear separation for each active user you
will have to split the line(s) with information at 64 characters.

HTH,

Wouter

Thanks for replying Radar, do i need to open ldb file in notepad to
see the result
