I am using Acess 2003
I created a Db to be used by another person. I don't know what I did but
the person who has to use this Db can only open it as a "read only". It is
located on a shared drive and I can open it from my computer, but he can not.
How do I make this Db available for him to be able to enter and print
reports/forms from the Db.

Make sure the other user has Read, Write, Delete, and Modify rights to the
FOLDER where the database resides.
