re: IIS 7 with asp and access


Please clarify one thing for me, are you using "classic ASP" or "ASP.NET" (two different technologies that can both be run in IIS 7, although most people use ASP.NET now).

To troubleshoot, I would do a very simple "Hello World" page like this (in classic ASP):
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <% dim h,w
  2. h = "Hello"
  3. w = "World"
  4. response.write h & " " & w & vbNewLine %>

good, then you're in the right place. Try the simple "Hello world" page I put in my last post and tell me the result.
