Common database error
=====================================================================================
If you receive the following error: -
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error `80004005`
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Operation must use an updatable query.
This means that the directory the database is in does not have the right permissions
to be able to write to the database.
If you are not running the server yourself then you will need to contact the server`s
administrator and ask them to change the permissions otherwise you cannot update a database.
