"read only"
I'm trying to open and change a database, and get a message "The database
____ is read-only. You won't be able to save changes made to data or object definitions in this database". I never made it "read only". How do I fix it, please |

Has this database been copied from a CDROM?, because if so, it has set the
read-only attribute on the file, right-mouse click on the file, goto properties and make sure the read-only checkbox is NOT checked. check anyway -- Regards Alex White MCDBA MCSE http://www.intralan.co.uk "faisan10" wrote in message ...

Thanks for getting back to me. No, it wasn't copied from a CDROM. I did try
right-clicking on the file, but the read-only checkbox is greyed out, with no checks. I would appreciate further suggestions. Thanks again.
