I'm trying to create an online form that is connected to an Access Database. The data from the form is supposed to be collected into the database, however when I press submit, I get an error message that says-

[ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.

What can I do to fix this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks.
 
Right click the DB, choose properties, and uncheck read only
 
Thanks. But "read only" is already unchecked. I ftp'd the database to our sever and it's there. But for some reason I get the read-only error. any suggestions?
 
You may have maxed your sever space out.

Thanks Ken. I doubt it, the server should have enough space on it, and the database is pretty small, just 140KB.
any other ideas?
Thanks!
 
The tables you are linked to, access is unable to edit them.
 
Create a completely new db and put it on the server and see if it goes read only too...

Ken
 
Oh, its on a webserver.

did you give general users write permission to the webserver?
 
I just FTP'd a new db to the server, and still getting that read-only error. And the permissions are set as well... is there anything else I could do?
Thanks.
