Opening Access .laccdb database file

I have Access 2010 and am trying to open a database file, extension .laccdb that was emailed to me. I can't for the life of me get it to open. Any guidance?
Answer
Answer

A .laccdb file isn't intended to be opened. It is not the database itself, but a small file that Access uses to keep track of who has opened a database.

You'll have to ask the sender to email you the .accdb file instead of the .laccdb file. The .accdb file is the actual database.
