What does Error 3112 indicate when compacting an MDB file?

The Error description is "Records can't be read; no read permission on 'xyz123.mdb'"

There is a known issue with the Compact function on some versions of Access MDBs. Is the solution in this case to run the Microsoft utility JETCOMP.EXE on this file?

What are the other possible causes of this error?
