Read-Only |
| message from Larry on 7 May 2004 |
I worked on a database at home, burned it to CD and copied
it over to my computer at work. When I open the Database,
it says its read only, and won't allow me to make any
changes. How come?

In versions of Windows earlier than Windows XP, any file you copy from a CD
has its Read Only attribute set. Just right-click the file, choose
Properties, and uncheck the Read Only check box.
Windows XP is smart enough to clear the attribute when you copy the file
from the CD but it is, as far as I know, the first version of Windows to do
so.
