The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 3.0, 5.0

SYMPTOMS
When you try to write to a file, the action fails and a "File Access
Denied" (error 1705) error message is displayed.
RESOLUTION
The steps you must use to resolve this problem depends on the network
product you are using.
For a LANtastic network, do the following:
- Check the files and locks on the SHARE command in the AUTOEXEC.BAT
file. The following are the recommended settings:
share /f:5120 /l:500
- Verify that the .EXE, .RSC, and .OVL files are marked as read-
only. If necessary, change the security using the MS-DOS ATTRIB
command (for example, ATTRIB +R <filename>).
- Ensure that the CONFIG.FP file on the server redirects the OVERLAY=
to a directory other than the directory containing the FOXPRO.EXE
file.
For a Novell network, do the following:
- Check the user's privileges.
- Have the user log in as a supervisor and repeat the operation.
- Ensure that the .EXE, .ESO and .ESL files are marked as read-only.
If necessary, change the security using the MS-DOS ATTRIB command
(ATTRIB +R <filename>).
