I wish to move the database (Access), may I ask in what page(s) are there Connection Strings to the database.

all connections to the access database are done within the 2 common.asp files

one can be found in the forum root folder and one in the admin folder.

you need to change the section where strCon and strDBPath are set.

its a few lines after the copyright statement.

you need to reflect the path changes within the strDBPath or you can use the physical path
