Should I have to use ACESS 2000? My webhoster said if I want to use ACESS 2000, I have to upload the database first, and then email them the folder, they will assign DSN (Data Source Name) to that folder for me.
Actually, I just set up my forum, and post few test message, however, I cannot find where are the database. Please help. Thanks.

the database should be in a directory called tools by default. what does your strConnstring look like. ?

It looks like:
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("tools/snitz2000.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path
So, I believe the database is under tools folder using access2000.
But how come my web hoster haven't given me the DSN (data source name), I already can save data already. What I am going to do after he assined me the DSN? I have told him the database folder is tools.
Thanks for the reply

because you do not need a DSN to connect to the database, the tools directory obviously has the required permissions for the connection string to work.
