Howdy,

I have created a few split multiuser databases in Access 97 that my company has used over the past few years. Currently, we are trying to move everything to a new network server. When I did a simple copy and paste on Friday moving everything to the other server it seemed to work fine. Until I tried to open any of the databases. I kept getting the message that they all were read only.

Do I need to bring the database back together before transferring it? I also plan on converting the databases to Access 2003. What precautions should I take in doing this?

Thanks for any and all information you can pass along.

Right click on the database in the Windows Explorer and select Properties. Check that the "Read Only" checkbox is not checked.
