I have installed a program on numerous computers. That links to a database that is on a network. The program works on every computer with the exception of one. It keeps giving a COM error and telling me that the database my be opened exclusively by a different user. The computer is a clone of the other and has the exact same programs installed. For some reason this computer is not able to run the program correctly. And yes the .NET Framework is installed on all the computers. Any help with this error would greatly be appreiciated.
 
Did you do what the error message said and check to make sure the database is not opened with exclusive rights by one of the other computers (or even that one)? Did you try a reboot?
 
The connection is made at runtime. The database is not opened exclusively by any machine not even that one. Since the connection is made at runtime it actually tries to open it and fails every time, never opening the database. All the other machines can connect to the database at the same time but this one cannot even connect to the database when it is the only one trying. The database is completely closed. Not sure why it is giving me this problem. The database that I am connecting to is Microsoft Access, and the code is VB.NET. Any help given would be greatly appreciated.
