This activated the three drop-down menus for Owner, Group and Everyone.Only Owner was set to "Read & Write", the other two were only set to "Read" so I set all three to "Read & Write". I did not enter anything into the "Owner Name" field because I didn't know what to enter, nor did I check the box next to "Set Owner To Parent Folder Owner" because I didn't know if that was necessary either.Then I saved my changes and upload a new db file via FTP, and I was pleasantly surprised to learn that webdna was able to write to the db file I just uploaded. So it seems that my changes solved the problem.Thanks Paul and everyone ... :)-- Kenneth GromeWebDNA ProgrammerOutsource Service ProviderPhone: +6332 255-6591-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
