Hi Charlotte:

I am just sending a zip as an attachment to an email. It should be as simple
as to open the destination MDB, save the attachment to a directory, unzip
it, open the source MDB and drag and drop. 

...but for some reason the new table appears to arrive 'locked'???

Of course you never know what is really happening at the other end.

How are you sending it?  If you put it on a CD, it will be normally
readonly by default and they have to copy it to their hard drive and set
the read-only file attribute to false.

Hi All:

I have been sending a single table, in a new MDB, to a client so they
can copy it into their MDB. They report that the table is locked and
they can not copy it. We have gone through this process a couple of
times and I am not sure what is going on.

I have just suggested a Make-Table query and hopefully that will solve
the problem. 

Has anyone else ran across this problem before and found a solution or a
reason.

TIA
Jim
