Default Front End Problem

I have designed a data base using a front end for multiple users. It works
well under my user name but opens in read only once I copy it to other users.

Has anyone got any suggestions. (

Does every user have full permissions for the directory where the back end
resides?

And make sure that (in Windows Explorer) they're not set to Read-Only. Some
CD burners, especially older ones, copy the files with that attribute.
