Hi Friends,

I recieved a mail contains .mdb file.When i downloaded and try to open that file i got the following error.


[b]The current user account doesn't have permission to convert or enable this database.

To convert or enable a database, ensure the following:
* You must join the workgroup that defines the user accounts used to access the database.
* Your user account must have Open/Run and Open Exclusive permissions for the database object.
* Your user account must have Modify Design or Administer permissions for all the tables in the database, or it must be the owner of all tables in the database.
* Your user account must have Read Design permission for all objects in the database.
* Request that other users close the database

Can any one give me the solution to open the database and view the Data's

I need this help very urgent!

Bye!

From what I can tell, they need to send your the .mdw workgroup file they use. Then you have to join it and log in with an account that has the appropriate priveleges.
