Why is my db read-only? It was no previously.

I have checked database properties, and everything else
that seems appropriate to remove read-only property.
However I am still not able to update the database because
the property remains at Read-Only.
There is no user permission setup.
That database is split.
I have used the db previously with no problem.
The database is on our network but no one else is using
the file.
Any suggestions as to how I can remove this unwanted Read-
Only property?
Thank you.

Possibilities:

The database was written to CD and then copied to your hard drive
(right-click the file in Windows Explorer and remove the read-only flag).

Your network permissions have been changed. You need read write modify
delete permissions on the folder where the mdb is.
