I have a database that is linked to a backend database. The "front end"
application is installed on a number of computers at a school. The back end
is installed on a server. Typically, when the front end is copied onto a
computer, we get the message "The database DynamicMinds is write protected
you will not be able to.... <I forget>." To get rid of this, we right-mouse
on the application (front end) database, choose properties, and uncheck the
"write protected" checkbox. But we have one computer where the message is
displayed but the "write protected" checkbox is not checked either on the
front end or back end database. AND it is possible to update information on
the backend database. I'm not at the site, so I don't know if it's possible
to make modifications to the front-end application.
Does anyone know what might cause this message if
right-mouse/properties/write-protected is unchecked on both the front and
back end databases?
