[AccessD] Cannot delete Missing references

When you say burned a copy do you mean to CD?  Is the mdb file read only
now?  Check with windows explorer and set back to r/w if it is read only.
When copying from CD to disk the file is copied Read Only.

Subject: [AccessD] Cannot delete Missing references


Yesterday I was out on-site with a client and together we made some changes
to the mdb. I burned a copy of the modified version to bring home to
continue working on and now the references are causing me some problems.

Client had Frontpage refs which are newer than mine - so naturally when I
load I get 'Missing' for the 2 front page files. I tried to just untick
those refs and then add my versions but I simply cannot untick those missing
references and click OK - I get error message 'Cannot perform requested
operation'. The other thing I tried was to replace the refs by clicking
browse and override the missing refs with mine - same error.

BTW - I thought maybe an open form or something may be blocking me from
changing the refs - but I am just shift+opening the mdb - no open forms or
anything else.

What am I missing? 

TIA

Kath
