    Hi I wonder if anyone could possibly help me before I tear my hair out. I written an application in vb.net 2008 express. I'm using InnoSetUp to install it. Withing the set up file I've got links to the .net framework 3.5 install and the SQL Server 2005 install. Installing on my Vista lap top, which I wrote it on, no probs. As soon as I install on my Pc, XP then I get an error stating that there is already a database of that name or this one is installed elsewhere. I've checked security permissions before install (on Vista) and ensured that users have full permission. However, once on XP machine, users only have Read Only access to my database. Any ideas how I can stop vista changing the permissions so that clients can alter data in database. Thank you very much Kris MCP :mad:

      What makes you think Vista is changing it, if the issue is on XP ? You can write the code to make the file not read only, if that is the core problem

      Christian Graus Please read this if you don't understand the answer I've given you "also I don't think "TranslateOneToTwoBillion OneHundredAndFortySevenMillion FourHundredAndEightyThreeThousand SixHundredAndFortySeven()" is a very good choice for a function name" - SpacixOne ( offering help to someone who really needed it ) ( spaces added for the benefit of people running at < 1280x1024 )
