Database connection problem

When I try to open a DSN connection to my Access database I get the following error and the connection ia not made:

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the

file '(unknown)'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view

its data.

[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed

I'm at a loss as to what this means or how to fix it. I have developed database applications in the past and never had this problem connecting.
