I'm trying to access an MS Access database on a Windows 2000 PC from a
Windows XP Home Edition, with no luck.
I get the answer that don't have sufficient acces or that I reside on a
different phycilal network (witch I don't).
How do I solve this? (it's a small local network).
Do I really have to upgrade the Home Edition to a Professional version?
I can access some folders on the 200 server, but not run the DB.

Regards
Lennix
 
Windows XP Home uses Simple File Sharing, by default. Try mapping the
shared resource on the Windows 2000 machine to an actual drive letter.
Provide a username and password that has full read/write access to that
folder on the Windows 2000 machine.
