Homework this week invoved attaching a database to a VS project. Whenever I tried to run it I got this error:
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\AllTheFlicks.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
Seems this is a known security glitch that denies your own computer the permission to run your own work on local host. But, Microsoft doesn't see the ned to correct the problem. There are a few steps that are needed to be able to run localhost with a databse. They have to do with changing permissions, sharing, and turning off the option to let IIS control a password. Here are are couple links to describe them.
