Question : Access Runtime Edition - Opens db's in exclusive mode

We have recently rolled out Access 2003 (runtime) along with several new db's...

however a number of PC's insist on opening databases in exclusive mode, is anyone aware of a workarround for this?

Cheers

I just can't believe it... This VB routine runs -- obviously -- after the DB has been openend. This would mean that you can change the opening mode of a DB *after* it has been opened!

What's more, this does not explain why it worked on some PC and not others...

But hell, it you found a solution, let's drop the matter. Splitting the points is a nice gesture, thanks!
