Hi,

does anyone know how in vbscript or idc to connect to an Access Database using its ip address?

regards Roltrap
 
roltrap,

The database itself does not have an IP address but the machine it resides on does. You should be able to connect to it like this. If you are going to hard code its IP address, you might as well hard code the rest of it.

\\130.95.40.10\c$\mydata\mydb.mdb
