Cant type in form

I have a form i use for my suborinates to type in reports and save them to a
table within my networked access database. Now it worked when i just had it
on my comp but when i enabled the security and put it on the network it now
does not allow me to enter any data onto the form and only draws from the
table. any idea why this is happening and any solutions. i figure it is
probablly something stupid i am overlooking but i cant find it please help.

Do they have Read, Write, Create and Delete privileges on the folder
containing the database? Do they have Update privileges in workgroup security
to update the table, *and* to update the query upon which the form is based?

See John's answer regarding the folder permissions.

Regarding security, there is user-level security and there is a database
password. Did you implement user-level security, or did you simply protect
the database with a password?

this problem even affects me. I have all privaledges and when i try to type
in a field i get the error beep and i cant figure out why it will not add
records either. I have another form that i add presonnel with and it works
fine for adding and changing data. and i have user lvl security enabled.
