here is the problem. The ASP App. that i have made, works on my PC at home( IIS 5 and ASP 3.0)but when i up load to the server with the same that i have in the pages doesn't work here is the example:

<% dim objConn


set objConn = Server.CreateObject(&quot;ADODB.Connection&quot;)objConn.Open &quot;DSN=Mite&quot;

%>

that is my DSN connection to my access database, what else do i need for this to work on the hoster's server. do i need a differant connection string or do i need a diffant coding for this stinker to work cuz if so i am not sure what else i need. if any one knows first hand what the code is for this please get back to me on it thanks

Does the server have FrontPage (other?) server extensions loaded? JHall
 
Does the host also have the DSN and is it configured correctly? JHall
 
everything is done on there side and now it works but i am not sure what they did in the code they have a admin guy that just took a look at it today so it works now but i still don't know what was wrong. i emailed them back and hope to get the 411.
thanks
