    Beginner question!!!

    Hi

    I'm trying to create a datagrid using the code from this page:

    http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/3314411

    I'm running VS.Net 2003 on WinXP.

    The code seems fine (to me!) but when accessing the page I get the following error:

    The Microsoft Jet Database engine cannot open the file 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\screener\mdb\parts2.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view it's data.

    I have searched through previous threads but am unable to get any of the solutions to work.

    Thanks

    make sure that the mdb directory where your database file is located is not readonly(ie make sure that the anonymous web account has permission to write to that directory - opening an mdb requires creating a lock file that has to written to the same directory as the mdb).
