So if I try to take an Access database that currently resides on a network shared drive (or try to create a brand new one for that matter) on a web folder of a "workspace", why won't it work? I have read, write modify permissions on the folder I am trying to add it to, however I can errors, and it won't recognize the file type (.accdb or .mdb gets made .unk).

Could someone just explain the logic to me of why this doesn't work?

Thanks Justin

EDIT: So I guess I should include that on the shared drive there is a folder that houses the access front end file, and anothe folder within this folder that houses the BE tables file. I tried to reproduce what it one the shared drive in the web folder. I cannot even get the mdb portion to work unless it's downloaded locally to my computer.
