Jim, It wasn't the server but one of the user sessions. By getting all users out, the offending session had to release the lock.

I had all users log off then back on and that did the trick. I am sure the server had a lock on the tables. I am now able to import and reload the database. Have a great day.

That often reveals a forgotten workstation, or someone running multiple sessions of R:Base (perhaps some that are, for whatever reason, no visible to the user). -- Larry
