I am very new to any type of database and I am helplessly lost. Here is the problem.. my website is on frontpage, the host is verio.
Problem #1: What exactly is a fpdb folder? Should I have one of these?
Problem #2: How do I know which one of these I should uncomment?
"'## Make sure to uncomment one of the strConnString lines! 'strConnString = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=c:\inetpub\dbroot\snitz_forums_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 97 'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/fpdb/snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path 'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inetpub\dbroot\forum.snitz.com\snitz_forum.mdb;" '## MS Access 2000 'strConnString = "driver={SQL Server};server=SERVER_NAME;uid=SQL_USER;pwd=PASSWORD;database=DATABASE_NAME" '## MS SQL Server 7 'strConnString = "driver=MySQL;server=SERVER_NAME;uid=MYSQL_USER;pwd=PARRWORD;database=DATABASE_NAME" '## MySQL"
I am guessing it is one of the three since I am using the access database. I realize that I need to change the wording to point at where I put the database, but that isnt in place yet since im still lost on the fpdb file thing.
Any help would be so greatly appreciated.. Thank you so much.
I admit I was an airhead about all of this. Of course I found the fpdb folder right after the post and with your help, I did manage to get it working. Thank you!
