I am working with a replicated databse. When I try to update the memo it fails throwing error 3188. Project is currently locked on this machine. I think it has something to do with the .ldb file that opens when you access the replica. Anyone know how to temporarily disable it with VBA then re-enable it when the update is complete? I know it kind of defeats the purpose of the ldb file... but some hacker out there is bound to know how to get around it... so why shouldn't I.
