ERROR
When using the 'Register with Geodatabase' command in ArcCatalog on a Microsoft Access database, the following error is returned:“Unable to register with the geodatabase.
General function failure.
System resources exceeded.”
When registering large tables, this error may occur if the MaxLocksPerFile registry setting for your system is being exceeded.
