I've tried posting this in the 'microsoft.public.access' but I will post it
here also, as I think it might be the webserver which is causing my problem.
---------
I have an Access 2003 database which is in the "fpdb" folder of my
webserver. Its located there so that I can use asp to build a web-based
front-end for users to read the database -
http://www.nist.ac.th/maths/test1.asp
The MBD file is edited using Access (2003) and opening it through the UNC
path to the server. When we open it in Access to edit it, we get this error
message:
"The database 'NAME' is read-only.
You won't be able to save changes made to data or object definitions in the
database."
If I make a copy of the file (in the same folder or elsewhere) its ok.
If I restart the server the problem goes away for a few hours (is it a
"session" problem?).
If I try to delete or rename the file, I get the message that I cannot,
because "It is being used
by another person or program". However, if I check in 'Computer Management'
on the webserver the file is NOT open.
When I do open the file for editing, the OPEN MODE in Computer Management
shows the MDB file as "read" and the LDB file shows as "write+read".
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks,
Graham
