Hi,
I am trying to set up a basic site using .asp through dreamweaver which WAS working fine offline. I set up my web server, installed the driver, set up the DSN and all went well. But now one of the pages is not working and the others are fine. The page gives me the error:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

/localhost/TMPs3c669afu.asp, line 8

I've checked the DSN settings and alls well and the others are ok. What's UP! Help please.
Ian B

If the dsn is set up properly, most likely your connection string is bad. Try http://www.connectionstrings.com/ - http://www.connectionstrings.com/
