Hello,
I'm looking for a "Set Up Your Permissions 101" in response to the above
error, which I get on a local IIS5.1 installation, when I'm trying to view
Live Data / preview an ASP file from within Dreamweaver MX.
I get the above error, which is 'dealt with' in http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;174943 , but I'm not
wise enough to be sure about the correct process for ensuring that the
IUSR_<machinena me> account has enough permissions to access the database.
For what it's worth:
The database is outside of \inetpub\wwwroo t
My local XP user (the one I'm logged in as) has Admin permissions
It's doing my head in!
Could someone be v nice and give me a step by step on this... as far as I
can tell the documentation isn't explicit about where I should be making the
changes.

This article is talking about NTFS file and folder permissions. Either IUSR
or your authenticated user/group needs "Change" permissions to the folder in
whihc your MDB is stored.
As a "best practice", do not put the database file under your web root.

This article describes the process: http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2205
For an Access database, you have to assign read/write permissions for the
folder containing the database to all users of the database, including the
IUSR account (which usually shows up in the XP Security dialog as "Internet
Guest Account")
There are other articles about assigning permissions on the www.microsoft.com site in the Windows XP section.

Thanks Tom!
What I'm looking for is a "hand holding" through the process by which I can
achieve this... I can see the Windows folder the database is in, but can't
manage to get the iusr_<machine-name> to have control over it...
I'm starting from scratch on all of this, so my middle name's 'newbie'...
I'm not sure if it should be changed within the database, the Windows
filesystem, in the IIS Admin tool, or what.
As they say in the comment about 'idiot proof' - I *am* the better idiot in
this area :-\
Having said that, as I indicated, my database isn't in the web root, so I
guess that's something...
Many thanks

I've created a database which I needed to give multiple people access

that the MDB file was set to shared, not compacting and set to run
users not owners permissions before I converted.
