Hi,

I'm a student and for my final exams I have to set up a website for a company. I've created an asp page to send in resumes online. The user completes the form and when he or she submits, the information is inserted into a database.

When I try to insert the data I get:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access 97 Driver] Can't update. Database or object is read-only.

I think this problem has to do with permissions so I searched the Snitz Support Forums and found a lot on Updateable Query stuff, but I can't seem to find an exact way to set up an IIS website including a database directory with the appropriate permissions.

I've tried giving everyone full control on the database dir and the database file, but nothing seems to help.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

IUSR_machinename also needs to have read/write access for the directory and database.

Machinename is a generic for the Machine Name you've got established (also could be server name)
