Default Can't open data file

(Windows 98) I reformatted my C disk. I backed up data on
a floppy disk, but when restoring found the data to be no
good. Also saved the data file to CD. When I tried to
open that data file, got this message:

Unable to open herd database. The Microsoft Jet database
engine cannot open the file "I:\MyHerds\NewHerddata.hrd".
It is alreday opened exclusively by another user or you
need permission to view its data.

It is my data and no one is using it. Is there a way to
get around this?

The data is lost?? Crocodile tears.

Thanks for any help!

Please don't ask the same question in multiple newsgroups as it makes more
work for everyone. Answered in .win98.gen_discussion.
