Copying a writeable db to a cd to take home

I've had no luck finding any info to help me copy my db to a cd so I can work on it at home. I get it copied but it is read only when I open it at home. Any help would be great...

Read only are all CD transfers. Just change the Read only attribute smile.gif

Greg:

Also, you've got to copy it from the CD onto your hard drive. While it resides on the CD it is (naturally) read-only.

There is a bug in some versions of Windows that sets files read-only when copied from locked volumes. The general work-around is to copy a compressed archive of the files to the CD, then un-compress them back to the hard disk.
