I was wondering if there was anyway to get around having to open an Access 2000 database exclusivley in order to import/export forms, modules and reports. I currently have two database that I support being used by multiple persons. One is a development Access 2000 database and the other is a production Access 2000 database. The users are to migrate their tested objects from their personal development database to a production database used by all customers when the new objects are ready to be used by everyone. The customers are always in production so when it is time to export from development to production the user encounters the message that the database being exported to has to be opened exclusively. Please let me know if there is anyway to get around having to open the datasbe exclusively in order to export the objects. Thank you.
