A2007 - MDB's are READ-ONLY, can't be moved nor be renamed ?!?

[harmi]

Hi NG;

it's getting more and more weird i guess.

As i created Save-As-Versions of the READ-ONLY-MDB's, i wanted to
rename
now the RO-Versions to *_old.mdb and rename the new MDB's which are
not
RO to the original name. (in the windows explorer)

Result: Cannot rename x.mdb - Access is denied
Make sure the disk is not write protected
and that the file is not currently in use.

The SAVE-AS-Versions can be renamed,
so it seems be not a Folder-Rights-Problem.

Any ideas of what's behind this strange behavior?

Thanks in advance

Harmi

It seem to remember this happening to me a while back. I'm not sure how I
cleared it up, other than rebooting my machine. I also suggest locating the
file in Windows Explorer right clicking the file and checking the Read Only
attribute.
