This newsgroup is dedicated to Microsoft Access databases, so you'd have a
better chance of getting a quick, accurate answer if you post your question
in a newsgroup dedicated to your operating system and tell them which
version and service pack is installed.
That said, if I were you, I'd check your permissions on that directory, your
profile's quota to see if it's full, and where your Temp and Tmp environment
variables are really pointing to and check if you have permissions and disk
space in those directories.
HTH.
