[AccessD] WORKGROUP FILES

It does look like the problem is a rights issue to the folders.  I tested
this morning and the user has read-only rights everywhere and gets an error
when I try to change to read-write.

Hi John:

If that is the case it would appear that the users have limited access to
the directories where either the security file, databases or lock-file
resides. This is not a problem with Access but a problem with how the
permissions on directories themselves are setup.... this is an IT issue and
nothing to do with you. All the respective directories must have read and
write access for all users.

Jim
