This sounds like a security issue with IIS. Try this: goto IIS/Default
Web Directory - right click, goto properties goto Directory Security.
Check to see what the settings are. Obviously not anonymous. If you
are using windows integrated security you might try adding an account to
the server, then include UID = ...; PWD = ...; in your connection
string.

One other option, if you have physical access to the server computer,
then don't use the remote connection string. Connect directly to the
DB. And if you have direct access to the server you could take this one
step further and just link to the table directly.

You need to specify a full path name for the mdb file.

In other words, to open the mdb file, you have to be able to physically see
the file.

If you can browse to the file via network neighbourhood and see the file,
then you can make a ado connection. Remember, JET is only a file share
system. Thus, it is no different then Excel, Word, PowerPoitn etc. To open
and use the data, you have to be able to use the standard windows file
dialog.

Since you can't open excel, or word files via a web address, you can't do
the same to a mdb file either.

You can consider setting up a VPN, but then you will suffer performance
problems. I have some notes on the problems, and solutions to this at:
