I’ve got an Access database that I’ve created with a few Data Access Pages that are suppose to be able to let me get to the database from the web. If I go to the web interface (using internet explorer) from the web server computer (IIS 5) everything works just fine, but if I try to access it from another computer I get this error: Microsoft Web Components could not open the database ‘C:\.......’. It’s like it is trying to access the database on the local computer rather than on the web server. Anyone have any suggestions?
 
I'm working on the same problem but have yet to find the solution.
When you go to the web interface (using internet explorer) from the web server computer (IIS 5), are the data access pages making changes to the database on your hard drive rather than your web server database??????
