Hi,
I am trying to run the read button code but get 3 messages denying access to path.

Error 1 Cannot write to the output file “C:\EDU05\EDU05_VB2010_tutorial\Read_Button\obj\x86\Debug\Read_Button.Form1.resources”. Access to the path ‘C:\EDU05\EDU05_VB2010_tutorial\Read_Button\obj\x86\Debug\Read_Button.Form1.resources’ is denied. Read_Button

Error 2 Cannot write to the output file “C:\EDU05\EDU05_VB2010_tutorial\Read_Button\obj\x86\Debug\Read_Button.Resources.resources”. Access to the path ‘C:\EDU05\EDU05_VB2010_tutorial\Read_Button\obj\x86\Debug\Read_Button.Resources.resources’ is denied. Read_Button

Error 3 Could not write lines to file “obj\x86\Debug\Read_Button.vbproj.FileListAbsolute.txt”. Access to the path ‘C:\EDU05\EDU05_VB2010_tutorial\Read_Button\obj\x86\Debug\Read_Button.vbproj.FileListAbsolute.txt’ is denied. Read_Button

I have tried it on two machines - one Windows 7 and the other Windows 10

What am I doing wrong?

For some reason all the files in the edu05_rev1148 package are read only.
Select the ‘highest level’ folder e.g. EDU05.
Right click on it and select Properties.
Uncheck the Read-only check box and click OK and OK.
Now all the files in all the subfolders should not be read only.

Next operation (if not yet done):
Copy the file EDU05D.DLL from the folder \DLL to the \Windows\System32 folder.
If you have 64-bit operating system, copy the file to \Windows\SysWOW64 folder.
