I am sorry. Please excuse me. I did not know that you created AVFP. I can hardly wait to role up my sleeves. I will get back to you soon about the perms.

>AVFP is short for ActiveVFP. Did giving each of those tables the rights work?
>>Now that is interesting. In Windows XP (without SP2) I did assign IWAM and IUSR full control of the data directory only (not each of the tables) and the mtdll was able to get to the tables. If it is not a SP2 issue why am I getting away with just setting the perms for the directory only? And... what is AVFP ?

>>>ActiveVFP uses this technology. If you could download it and see if it pops up the demo page, that will tell you that you didn't configure something right. I don't think they are any issues with XPSP2. You need to assign the rights for iusr_ and iwam_ to every table within your data directory, not just the directory itself(AVFP does this automatically). You could also checkout the setup.prg in ActiveVFP to see how this is done..
>>>>windows xp sp2 is not allowing a mtdll, which I instantiate from an active server page, access to my vfp tables. It runs fine on windows xp without sp2. Can someone tell me how to set up the rights so that a vfp mtdll, that reads and writes data to vfp tables, so that it can be instantiated on an active server page. BTW.... I am running this on my development computer. The web page is being served up on the same computer that I am viewing the web page from. And.... what user is accessing the vfp mtdll when it is instatiated from an asp.
