[AccessD] ldb

The lbd is located in the same directory as the mdb.
Therefore, unless the CD is a CDRW it won't work.
Have the client copy the mdb to the hard drive and then run it.
Most of the time when the mdb is copied from a read-only CD, it's also read-only.  If that is the intent (that is, keep it read-only) then nothing needs to be done.
If you want the mdb to be read-write then looking at the properties of file will reveal the read-only checkbox is checked.  Uncheck the it and you're good.

Hello List,
When advising a client about trying to run his dB from a CD, I had a thot.
Where does Access place the .ldb when running a read only .mdb?

Anyone have an idea?

best,

bob heygood
