Larry, Thanks for the suggestion. I think what you said about the file server is the key. When this has happened before, it seems the problem is cared for overnight. Of course that would be when everyone logs off and the server does its backups. I will talk to the administrator and see if that can be cared for before tonight.

If that's not happening, it's possible that a hidden R:Base session or some rebooted machine somewhere still holds a lock on the database files. To cure this you can go to the file server and use the console to find and clear the locks on the files in question. Or simply reboot the file server if that's feasible. -- Larry
