This works in IIS on desktop Win2k and PWS Win98 but not on Win2k lt

[other3]

This portion of Javascript ASP works fine on my desktop installation of IIS in Win2k and PWS in desktop Win98 but not on my laptop Win2k or desktop IIS in WinXP. Any thoughts?

objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection");
objConn.ConnectionString = "DSN=pb";

objConn.Open(); // this is the line that causes the error.

pb is defined as a system dsn and every other, non-web type, program where I use it via ODBC works fine.

If the code works on one configuration but not another, it's probably not the code that is at fault. You might want to try diagnosing a setup / software difference between the installations.

Incidentally, have you tried this method:

objConn = Server.CreateObject('ADODB.Connection');
objConn.Open('DSN=pb');

Hope this helps,
Dan
