This is one of the few pieces of code I've tried which has installed faultlessly on the first try! Well done. A very professional application which does not deserve to be in the 'Beginner' category. Quite polished in many respects - but the registration form could be smartened up a bit. Well done!

What happens when you try to add a message to a topic that already exists? Do you get a similar error? Just trying to track down if its specific to that page or not.

Thanks for reporting the error to me Matt, I just don't know why it is causing an error on your system as I can't seem to replicate the problem! Its something to do with the way it opens the database to write information into it.
I have tried it on several systems and it works on all of them (3 WinXP Pro systems and Win2000 Server). Sorry I can't provide more help.

Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.

This was generated after trying to delete a message.I'm running it on my
Win2000 machine running IIS.
Thanks for your time !

Ah ha!!! I think I MAY know what is causing this error now, try changing the permissions on the .mdb file. I've had that error before and changing the permissions fixed it. Give Everyone full access rights to the file and see if that corrects things.

I have copied this into my interdev project and tested it. Looks very good and all works perfectly until I try to do something which would update the database, when I get this "read only" error. I have checked that the web application has read/write permission and made sure that IUSR_xxx has full control of the 'messages.mdb' file neither of which has made any difference.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Why would someone want my ERDs, flowcharts and database design etc for this?!
SAnderson, have you also made sure that the folder in which the forum resides has the permissions set to allow write access? Sorry for the late reply, I haven't be on this site for quite a while.

Hi Wayen, have now spent some time going over your project, witch must have taken you a long time congrats on the good work.
but would like to point out a few problems with it.
1) most pages have lots of nesting errors in the html with tags closed in the wrong order and the table tag is normally closed to many times and sometimes the TD tag as well
I spent along time going over the pages fixing this
2) there is a security risk on the admin system you are not checking if the user has the right to do it before carrying it out, so if someone new the admin page names etc they could add new forums etc with out the right to do so.
3) when viewing the list of users the admins should also be able to edit there profile I also fixed this
4)there is no delete user section that I have seen anyway
p.s if you want a copy of the fixes I have made just let me know

Roby,
Thanks for pointing out the errors in my code :) I know there are many tweaks that could be applied to make it more efficient too.
This was my early code that I produced several years ago now, when I was still learning.
Thanks for the offer of the fixes, but I no longer use it as it was only coding practice for me :)
