Unless you allow write permissions through the IIS snap-in in The Management Console, the file Inetpub only has Read Only access when you access it through http://localhost

Have you restarted the web server?
I suspect some permission issue somewhere. Make sure the IUSR_computername has full read/write capability to the database and it's folder. If you are using a DSN try using a connection string, pref. the OLEDB provider. If you mdb is Access 97 format, try updating it to Access 2000 or higher format. If you don't have the newest db drivers you can download them from www.microsoft.com/data

I assume you are running XP Pro. If so you should have an IUSR_xxxxx user account, which is the default user account that IIS runs under. That user account needs permission to write to any mdb files.
Possibly removing and reinstalling IIS will help you out.

If you added the IUSR account to the administrator group, you might want to reconsider if you web is exposed to the Internet. If anyone hacked in your website they would have admin rights. The IUSR account on my XP Pro is a member of the Guests group only.

You need to set the Read Write permissions on the IIS Snap-in, the default is read only. You need to set it to Write and execute scripts as well as read. Basically Full Control.

I don't mean setting the Read/Write permissions through Windows Explorer, I mean through the IIS Snap-in.
If you are going to re-install IIS, first of all, stop the server, and make a back up copy of the files within C:\Inetpub, then Start>Settings>Control Panel> Add/Remove Programs>Windows Components>Internet Information Services unchecked>Next
Allow it to finish, and just to be safe, restart the computer. Then re-install IIS in the same way, but make sure that the IIS check box in Add/Remove Programs is checked, and have you XP disk at hand, you might need it.
Then restart the server, and copy over your current files back into the wwwroot etc.
It will still have Read Only permissions, so you will need to set the Read/Write permissions from the IIS Snap-in in the Management console.

To use FP2003 you need at least FP2002 SE's installed, or am I wrong???

First and foremost, if it is a permissions issue, then an entry is being made in the server log. Look in there and see what you will see.
Second, in the very first message it says there is an error on line 250 of the script. Have you checked that line...

Have you looked in the server access logs, or not?
Have you checked line 250 of your script?

EVENT VIEWER >> SYSTEM ?
yes I have checked that.
& on line 250 its tryin to open the database connection to read & write to it so there are no entries for either one of these?quote:
As im on a net work, so does it matter i I have a dymanic IP or a Dedicated 1 Oh yeah, this matters a lot. If your servers IP changes (dynamic) then how in the world are you supposed to code a database connection? Your servers should be using a static IP address!

I even deleted the IUSR_XXX & then the system created a new 1 but ?? no use!!!
You do know that even though this user has the same name, it's not technically the same user? Windows keeps track of users by what's called an SID, which I think is short for "security identifier". Permissions are assigned to an SID, but the account's name is displayed. If you delete a user, and create a user with the same name, it will have a different SID. This means that since you deleted the IUSR, you should go back through all your permissions and make sure they're correct again.
