    Access Connections

    Is there any way to tell how may connections are currently open in an Access DB and who they belong to?

    Really? If I open mine with notepad I see that I've opened the file as an admin.

    I'm seeing the garbage as well. However that links mentions UserRoster which I'll look into and report back on.

    Thanks...

    That MSDN example ShowUserRosterMultipleUsers() helped me do exactly what I wanted.

    Back to the LDB files for a sec tho and the garbage I was seeing. It may be a 2002 thing as I have an Access 2.0 DB (shudder...)and can see more readable text in the LDB
