Recovering the mdb file

Hi,

I am getting an error while trying to open the mdb. "Microsoft Jet Engine
cannot process the file as the file is locked by some other user".

I tried to repair the mdb using compact and Repair feature in Access.

But it throwed me same error message.
Is there any way to recover the mdb file?

Thanks,
Venu

All users that were logged on must logoff.
Sounds like some one exited un-gracefully like shutting down their PC with
the application open.

Often the Locks Data Base (.ldb) file will remain when someone has
terminated their Access session in an MDB abnormally. If everyone is
out of the application and the Filename.LDB remains, try to delete it.

For more information on corruption including possible causes,
determining the offending PC, retrieving your data, links, official MS
KB articles and a list of vendors who state they can fix corruption
see the Microsoft Access Corruption FAQ at

If you are not able to recover mdb file by using compact and repair feature in Access then you need to use access recovery software from Stellar. This software uses the powerful algorithm to scan corrupt mdb file. First try the demo version then go for full version. You can download it from
