Okay, I use M$2004 Deluxe. Today, it crashed on me just as I was hitting =
enter to submit a transaction. I got the typical Windows XP message of =
"this application caused an error causing it to shut down... do you want =
to submit a report to Microsoft... do you want to restart the =
application..."
Apparenlty when this happened the lrd file that locks the data file, did =
not release. So now I cannot get into my data file as it thinks it's =
being used already by another application. I also cannot delete the data =
file or the lrd file as both think they are being used by another =
application.
I had a backup of my file, so I can still access my data, but how do I =
get rid of these locked files now. I have tried to reboot and then =
delete them before any application is opened, but to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
The Merg
