We use a lot of access database at my company. We have been getting a lot of locked files and it seems to proceed the entire network drive becoming unavailable until the server is rebooted. Most of our access is version 2003 and we have about 15 people with 2007. All are set to save as 2003 files. we are getting these locked files multiple times a week, almost daily. I even moved the shared drive onto a raid 5 drive on our 2008 server. Did a complete restore to the drive and shared it out. I thought the original problem was the usb drive but now it is doing it on the new server drives also. Any idea's? Everything should be on the latest service packs. I'm really looking for any clues as to what could be causing this. I have verified rights and all looks good.
