    When using your computer to develop and design data driven websites using Access or Excel, you may run into the error of not able to write the information to the data source.
  • Details
    This will show you how to setup your system to allow the IUSER_MACHINE-NAME & IWAM_MACHINE-NAME access to your data source for read and write access.

  • Resolve Issue
    To correct this issue, perform the following steps.

    Go to the folder that you have your site in
    Right click on the Folder

    When you Right Click, go to [Properties]
    Click on the [Security] Tab.
    Click on the [Add] Button
    Click on the [Advanced] Button

    Click on the Item.
    Click [OK]
    Click [OK] Again
    Give it [Write] Access.
