I'm creating pages from an Access database and have saved my output to a virtual directory on my web server... however, when i login & tried to make changes to any of the tables i receive the following error...
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.
Please let me know if u need any other details. thx

hy rchapman,
The only reason that i can think off is that you probably didnt set the proper permision on your database folders from Public-Read to Public Write. YOu can change the permision of the .asp files using an FTP; right click on the file and select Attribute or CHMOD and assign write permision

P.S.

is there a way I can add a datagrid to my pages... the data i am displaying pertains to a class room of students & it would be easier to be able to add data if it was in a datagrid (i.e. the dataview default in ms access for tables)

Hi,
currently you can add new data records on the Add page only.
