Hi all.

I have set this up before with no problems, but this time I can't get it working.
Here is the path to my database:

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\forum\tools\snitz_forum_2000.mdb

What should my path be in my config.asp?

I must be missing something easy, I don't remember it being this hard before!

Thanks,
Matt

How about:

strConnString = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=c:\inetpub\wwwroot\forum\tools\snitz_forum_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 97
?

Could have swore I tried that, it's the most obvious! But I put it in again and it worked!
One other question. What would the path be on a remote server?

Thanks,
Matt

As far as I know you can't use Access on a remote server, you can do that with Sql Server and MySql and then you use the IP-number of the server to point to the server and the db-name to point to the database, but like I said: I don't think that works with Access.
