A couple possibilities, though I've not seen this error before:
* Is there a password on the database? (Tools...security)
* Does the new dir you put the file in have permissions for this (I think
IUSR has to have read/write to it... not sure exactly)
* Try using a non-DSN connection, instead of DSN to see if you get the same
error, might help in troubleshooting? Change your path as needed to match
your database.
"Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};
DBQ=D:\Inetpub\databases\Education.mdb"
OR
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=D:\Inetpub\databases\Education.mdb;"
(You might need to use a different OLEDB number like .3.5.1, I think,
depending on the MDAC your ISP has installed -- that's the data access
components and the 4.0 version is for Access 2k, I think.)
* Is the database file itself 'Read Only' in Windows Explorer?
