by: SPM2 | last post by:

I have a database on one computer, and have the folder shared out. And I a have another computer linked to this database. But the problem I am having is that the 2nd computer when opening the database says that it is read-only. I check the folder and it is saying read-only. I fix this and then again when trying to access it, it is read only again. I'm not quite sure what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have an application where the user is able to select a number of search folders using the standard dialog control. There shouldn't be an issue with the search folder being on a local drive or a network drive. But if you don't have Read access to the folder, there's trouble. The user can see the...

network folder is read-only even though file attribute says its writeable

by: James Maeding | last post by:

I am familiar with using My.Computer.FileSystem.GetDirectoryInfo to get folder attributes, see code below... This does not work though for network drives on my companies system. We use windows as our server, nothing exotic. I looked at the security permissions and the "write" box for domain users was grey, but not checked. This means read-only to me and sure enough, I cannot change the files. Is there a different way to deal with...
