I get the following error message when I attempt to import a table into a different database. I have no clue, does anyone else have a clue concerning error message.

The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time. (Error 3197)
This error can occur in a multiuser environment.

Another user has changed the data you are trying to update. This error can occur when multiple users open a table or create a Recordset and use optimistic locking. Between the time you used the Edit method and the Update method, another user changed the same data.

To overwrite the other user's changes with your own, execute the Update method again.
 
Hi

Did another user update the database whilst you were importing the data exactly as the message says ?

No. I'm the only person with access to this database housed on a local PC.
