Access 2007 "This Recordset is not Updateable"

D

I am setting up a multiuser Access 2007 database (with FE/BE) that works fine
for local network users but that can only be "viewed" by Terminal Server
users. When attempting to edit any table in either form or datasheet view, I
get the message "This Recordset is not updateable". Is this a TS issue or an
Access issue?

Thanks.

It sounds like a permissions issue for the TS user. Does the TS user have
the same permissions as the local users on the BE folder and the BE db file?

To add to Paul's comments - Can the TS user create and update a .txt
file on the BE folder using Notepad? That will quickly show if it is
a network permissions problem or not.

Thank you both - it is definitely a TS user permission problem. I need to do
some more work there.
