Hi.

I just bought a new system.

Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHz

1 GB DDR Ram

160 GB HDD

Windows XP Professional SP 2

I tried to copy the files of my old hard disk to the new one. Then when I open my WWForums or when I open my access based ASP applications, I find an error stating:

and another page like:

when I tried to open a forum.

I think it shows an error when it tries to write the data on the mdb file.

Please help me solve this problem and Iam finding it too difficult without using IIS / WWF.

Thanking You

Praveen Kumar

Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005)
Operation must use an updateable query.

It's a permissions issue on your machine. Fix it just like you would a regular server by giving write access to the database.

Congrats on the new computer!!

That had to be the least helpful reply I've ever read... even for you.

Thanx but I have disabled all the securities for that kind and even when I put a new file in the path c:\inetpub\www\ it says this. So I don't understand what to do!!
