Accessing MS Access problem.

Hi,

I'm doing a web based tracking system for exam questions. Using ASP
with VBScript to link the database. I have the main log in screen
working but when i enter the log in details i get this error:

- Error Type
Provider (0x80004005)
Unspecified error
/ets/functions.asp, line 20

my functions.asp file looks like below. I am a total beginner with ASP
and VBScript by the way, any help would be awesome. cheers

Hi Geoff,

From the error code that you are getting, I would suggest that you check
that your hosting company permits you to use MSAccess databases - they may
have prevented "access" (excuse the pun).
