I'm use the ADO data control in VB 6 Professional with the Jet 4.0 OLE
module loaded via
MDAC 2.5 SP2

I'm working a what should be a simple homework assignment.

I've linked the ADODC control to an Access .mdb file.

I've placed two data-bound text boxes on the form linked to the ADODC
control and the
specific field within the datbase I'm interested.

I can navigate just fine using the control's built MoveLast, First, Next,
Previous "buttons", but
it I change and of the data in the text box and attemp to move away from it
via the control,
I get the "Operation must use and updateable query" error message.

I've messed about with all the sharing options under the "Advanced" tab of
the Connection
string dialog box without sucess.

Can someone provide a hint for me?  Searching the MSDN help files didn't
find me anything
useful.

A clue would be vastly appreciated.

adTHANKSvance!

Sorry to follow-up on my own posting.

As soon as I sent this, I figured out what the problem was...

I copied the .mdb file from the textbook's cd-rom.

It was read-only.

D'oh!

Sorry to have bothered y'all.
