Hi there.... again like the newbie that i am.... i am having problems with ASP.... .... just some quick enquiries..... how do i go about setting the database (mdb file) connection to the ISP in regards to the DSN settings..... i have tested another ASP page on the webserver and it is fine cos it does not connect to the database..... when i want it to it just displays a 'page cannot be displayed' error.... and everything is fine when i run it off my localhost..... so any feedback or help would be greatly appreciated.... thanx in advance
