Hi! I am getting an error when I try to compact my database:

Record(s) can't be read; no read permission on [insert path here]

I have tried to delete all of the tables from the database, to see if I could find any problems, but no luck. Even after I have deleted every form, query, table, everything, I still get the error. For a few days I stored this database on our server, which I have read/write access to, and that is when the problem first came up. I made a copy on to my local HD, and still get the error.

If anyone has any ideas, I would really appreciate it!

Thanks!

How about creating a new database and IMPORTING everything into it. Can't say for sure, but it might work.
 
Have you managed to get anywhere with this since you posted your request for help? I have the same problem.

Thanks

Steve,

following grnzbra's advice, I think I copy-pasted everything into a new database and that took care of it. This happened a while ago, so I can't say for sure, but that is what I would suggust you try.
