I usually use SQL Server, but have occasionally had to use Access. This is
such an occasion. My research, mainly at aspfaq.com, has been that you need
to put the file path in your connection string, like this (watch out for the
wrap):
strConnection = "Provider=Micro soft.Jet.OLEDB. 4.0;Data
Source=c:\mydir ectoryname\dbna me.mdb;User Id=xxxxx;Passwo rd=xxxxxxx;"
Well, the host of this new site I am working on is asking me if a relative
path will work. I don't think it will, but thought I should ask.
And please, I know that Access is not a good choice, but it needs to be this
way in this case.

I believe it needs to be a path like the one you listed, but you could also
use the MapPath function to get the full path to the file.
Hope this helps.

why don't you use server.mappath? ??? like below
strConnection = "Provider=Micro soft.Jet.OLEDB. 4.0;Data
Source="&server .mappath("relat ivepath")&";Use r
Id=xxxxx;Passwo rd=xxxxxxx;"
relative path may be any relative path of your access db...

Relative path works, placing the MDB in the same folder (no path)
works and Server.MapPath works. Depending on what your ISP allows and
where the database is located.
And please, I know that Access is not a good choice, but it needs to be this
way in this case.
Access is fine, provided you understand and can live with its
limitations.

can't seem to make it work.
Here's my entire code for this include file, and the only thing I changed
here is the ID and password:
strConnection =
"Provider=Micro soft.Jet.OLEDB. 4.0;DataSource= "&server.mappat h("\")"&shape.m d
b;User Id=x;Password=x ;"
filePath = Server.MapPath( "shape.mdb" )
I did this because the Access db is in the same folder as the page which
calls it (not the include file, but the page which calls the include)
The error I get now is:
Expected end of statement
/gracearlingtonc om/shape/includes/shapedbinc.asp, line 5
strConnection =
"Provider=Micro soft.Jet.OLEDB. 4.0;DataSource= "&server.mappat h("\")"&shape.m d
b;User Id=admin;Passwo rd=;"

to the quote mark right after the closing parenthesis.

Looks like it got past that problem. Now, I have to go research what this
means:
