	I am running Wiz forum 7.9. MS Access? I have a forum in which I would like all users to write. But when a guest try to post he get this error: ******************* Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e21' You cannot add or change a record because a related record is required in table 'tblAuthor'. /post_message.asp, line 756 ********* I wonder if it�s becuace my guest has author_ID 134 in database I hope someone have the answer

	When a guest posts they use the built in guest account. The built in guest account needs to have the Author_ID of 2 in the database, and the admin Author_ID of 1 If you change either of these your forum will not only be insecure, but fail to run correctly.

	If you do, you will have to change a lot of code. The guest account ID is hardcoded into the forum.
