Does anyone know how you go about setting up and odbc for a database on a web server. I've tried mapping the server as a network location, and it shows up in windows explorer, but when I attempt to set up the odbc, the wizard refuses to acknowledge that it has any folders in it.

I figure this is somehing about the wizard not being abe to log in. Is there any way anyone knows around this? Or a good place for me to look?

Setting an Access ODBC requires a local folder. Any folder will do, but the Internet Guest account needs read/write access to the folder. YOu need to make the ODBC entry  on the web server computer.
