Unable to Compact Database

[fredk]

I am getting the following error when I try to compact my database:

Record(s) can't be read; no read permission on T:/file name.mdb

The database is on a shared drive - whe I copy the database to my own computer, I get the same error?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Thanks!!!

hi, make sure u have the full admin right on that file. Go to the properties and have a look on it.

Thanks! It says:

"you only have permission to view the current security information on smallgroup.mdb"

Could that be the problem?

Thanks!!!

It does not appear to be the drive that it is on- I moved this database to my own computer and I still get the same error - Does anyone have any idea what could be happening here ? thanks!!!!

I tried to move the tables to a new database and one specific table says that there is another user updating the data where there is not ????
