Macro error "Cannot update. Database or object is read-only."

[mvdkwong]

I am trying to run a macro that will export a table into a fixed length
file (see below). However, when I run it, I get the following error:
"Cannot update. Database or object is read-only." I've tried a few
things that I found in postings, but I'm not getting anywhere. Please
advise on what I can do.
