Hi Again everyone
About a year ago I set up an ASP application on Windows XP Pro.
The user now wants to install it on another XP Pro machine. Unfortunately I have to try and talk him through this on the phone and I can't remember what needs to be done.
Basically the user has taken a backup of the system (all the ASP files and the MS Access database) and I am going to get him to copy these files onto the new PC. This should retain all the connection strings etc. I believe.
But it's the bit where I set up the connection in IIS that I've forgotten. Presumably I just have to set this up and call the connection the same as in the original system and it will all work?
Does anyone know how to set up IIS to allow this connection? I think with XP it can't/ shouldn't be a DSN connection?
Please help- I'm supposed to speak to him tomorrow!!
Thanks
