Hello!
I recently set up a paid account on Brinkster and wondered if anyone here could help me re-configure my forum. I used to have it through Verio and I can't figure out how to set it up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the reply! I guess my question is...since I've switched to Brinkster (paid account) from Verio - how do I change the path to the database? I'm not sure which string to edit and what to put in.

Thanks for the reply!! I guess my problem would be the driver then:
'Database connection info and driver (if this driver does not work then comment it out and use one of
the alternative drivers)
'strCon = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & strDbPathAndName 'Alternative drivers faster than the basic one above 'strCon = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.3.51; Data Source=" & strDbPathAndName 'This one is if you convert the database to Access 97
'strCon = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & strDbPathAndName 'This one is for Access 2000/2002
'If you wish to use DSN then comment out the driver above and uncomment the line below (DSN is slower than the above drivers)
'strCon = "DSN=DSN_NAME" 'Place the DSN where you see DSN_NAME Any idea which one of these is for the Brinkster paid accounts?
Thanks!!

you should be able ot use 'strCon = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & strDbPathAndName set the veriable strDbPathAndName above the above line to the path to the database., try using the physical path so strDbPathAndName = "E:\domains\... etc etc\private\forum.mdb it is funtional the above but gives an example |

put youR database file in to that foldeR than use
strDbPathAndName = " file://\\premfs89\sites\Premium43\username\database\databasename.mdb - \\premfs89\sites\Premium43\username\database\databasename.mdb ;" & _
"Persist Security Info=False" this should be like this
