StartUp

[bsnapool]

Hi

I have added the startup function within access, to open my form to edit data. When it now opens it automatically opens read only and it does not allow me back in to the start up menu to change this??

Any suggestions??

Thanks

Andrew

Hold down the shift key as you open the database.

thanks for your reply

When i hold down shift it still comes up with "The database will open read only"

Any other ideas?

Point the the database file, right click it select properties (at the bottom) and have a look to see if Attributes have a tick in the Read Only box if so take the tick off. This can happen if you copy the file from a CD to you computer.

Otherwise I don't know.

Tried that but readonly was un checked.

Just tried again, and it worked!! Strange, may of been a network issue

Thanks for your replies....
