User A opens DB first and user B can work too.
But if user B opens DB first then user A is locked out.

The database is set up as shared and both will open the DB in shared mode. The DB resides on the Novell LAN and both users have Read/Write access to the folder and are running XP Pro on their PCs. Both users log in with the same account and the same set of rights.

Has anyone seen this sort of thing before? Any way around it?

Cheers,
ND [smile]
