Hello 1) I'm having some trouble with IIS 6 and Access databases with web applications. Even though I have given the Internet Guest Account write/read access to both the MDB file and its directory, I still get errors such as Cannot update. Database or object is read-only., or other such errors. Extensive googling has revealed that most of these problems are cleared up by giving the IUSR Internet Guest account write and read to both the MDB and the directory which contains it, which doesn't clear up the problem. Any other ideas? The MDB's aren't set for read only or anything like that. I have even tried giving 'everyone' read/write temporarily, but no luck. 2) Our old website configuration had our database files (again access/mdb) outside of our wwwroot, but for the life of me I could not get our web applications to even read these mdbs unless they were inside our WWWROOT structure. Nothing critical (just some personal calendars), but I'd like to keep this security by keeping them outside of the wwwroot. Again, I have the IUSR read (and write for those ones that need it), no luck. 3) Why is it that even though you make changes to files with IIS 6 that sometimes it takes a reboot to flush them out, and sometimes that isn't even enough? Is there a way to flush out IIS so it sees the changes I've made? (I've tried starting and stopping IIS, rebooting, etc). PM James Madison
