I have a .net application that I am trying to run on my XP Professional
Laptop. I have gone through all the posts and they say to set the asp.net
user to have access to the folder. But I do not know where to set this, I
have gone into IIS and hit properties, I have gone in windows explorer,
computer management under users.

I know this is a newbie question, but please help, The error is below.

The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file
'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\quickstarttest\dbjoe.mdb'. It is already opened
exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
 
hi,
go to properties for the dbjoe.mdb file and under security tab add the
aspnet user account and the IUSR_<Machine Name> account to the users list.
