How to remove the warning 'The database is read-only'?

C

Chris

I'm currently working on a access database, and after i set the file as
'read-only', i got the warning message 'The database is read-only' everytime
when i open the database. What can i do if i do not want to get this warning
message?

Thanks

Hi, Chris.
What can i do if i do not want to get this warning
message?

You won't get this message if the database isn't opened read-only. You will
_always_ get this message if it is read-only, and you're using the Access
GUI. If you truly don't want to see this warning message, then either don't
open the file as read-only (i.e., remove the file's read-only attribute or
don't use the /RO command line switch), or don't open the database file with
the Access GUI (i.e., open it programmatically and use VBA to manipulate the
data and Access objects).

HTH.
