Here is the err msg pop-up on screen:

System Message 6903
Attempting to access record[Access] that is locked elsewhere in system. Do you want to continue retrying?
Yes or No

Where I can look the system file that locked login file?

Thanks!

This message is appearing where? On the workstation I assume. At what point? During login?

Pls specify the environment - WS OS, client & version, server patch status.

On the server in monitor you can look to see what files the connection has open and then go look at those files and see if there are any locks, but that can be a long process if there are a lot of files open.

If the WS has just been rebooted the server may still have files open from their previous connection, especially if there are network problems or the previous login attempt failed.

Really need more info on this one, sorry.

By chance, did you attempt to copy an access database to another directory while users were still accessng it? Look for a file in the directory where the database resides that has the word lock in it. If all users are out of the database, the file should delete automatically. If it is still there delete it manually.

Sorry about that if it is not too late.

I'm working on WS in win98, using client 3.2 to server 3.12. When I try to login a application which is running on Novell 3.12. The error ms pop-up, but it was good.

Thanks for your reply!
