ASP Security on Windows XP

[Scott]

I've recently moved to XP and have little experience with
ASP. Because of security reasons in IIS, I'm able to read
from an Access DB, but not able to write to it. My error
is "HTTP 500.100 Internal Server Error - ASP Error
Internet Information Services ... Can not update.
Database or object is read-only. Thanks

If you were to search in the inetserver newsgroups for=20
ASP use you will likely find this often answered.
The directory where the mdb is stored needs to have=20
NTFS permissions for Modify granted to the account=20
being used by IIS for the browsing session. Also, that=20
directory needs to be tagged within IIS as allowing=20
Write (and, as always where IIS is told to allow write,=20
you should remove script and execute).
