Hi there,

when I ran this SQL statement through Interbase SQL :

Alter Database Add File 'D:\LPDomain\LandpakSQL\dbSQL\landpakfb.001'
Length 2097152

I have got the following error:

Unsuccessful metadata update
lock time-out on wait transaction
object D:\LPDOMAIN\LANDPA~1\DBSQL\LANDPA~1.GDB is in use
Statement: Alter Database Add
File 'D:\LPDomain\LandpakSQL\dbSQL\landpakfb.001' Length 2097152

I am pretty sure that I am the sole user of this database, other than
Interbase, there is no other applications is using the database. Any
help please?

If I do need to have exclusive database access, is there a statement
that I can run?

thanks in advance,
