ODBC less Connection

I am trying to setup an Access connection without using ODBC. The part of my string that is giving me problems is:

[tt]Server.MapPath("D:/PathTo/Database/database.mdb")[/tt]

The problem apparently is that MapPath requires a virtual path yet the database is outside the virtual area so it needs a hard path instead. What is the proper syntax for this? Thanks! Don
