[Dxbase] XP and READ ONLY

[Sanford Ardern]

Since several replied to this I better put my comment back on the reflector.  I've been backing up my database to a CD using my writer.  Be assured that on WIN98 SE you can very easily update a new installation to your current log from a CD.  Yes - the files will be read only but in WIN98 you can REMOVE the READ ONLY attributes.  Actually I normally just go to the DOS prompt and do it very quickly.  My question is why can't I change the READ ONLY ATTRIBUTE when I right click on properties on the DXB2005 folder?  The attribute shows that it removes but it lies.  Hope I'm not confusing everybody and if any body knows how to change the read only attribute the inf would be much appreciated.
       Thanks,    Sandy     W4DUP
