I have several remote locations - stand alone computers. Developing data base and forms in office. When I try to save to cd (nero express) it always ends up in "read only". Have changed permissions, its not marked read-only. I want to be able to save a single entry database with the form and physically transport it on a CD to the remote location for them to use the form with the database attached

Windows marks AL files burned to a CD as read-only. When you copy from the
CD back to a writable disk you need to change the Read-Only setting back.
You could ZIP the file to a CD and unzip from the CD to avoid this.
