I have a combo box that is populated by a query. The problem is that the query pulls data from a different database than the rest of the form and it prompts the user for a password to access this database.
Is there any way of coding the password into the form so that the connection to the database is opened automatically without prompting the user?
Thanks.

I'm trying to use a banner ads .asp program called Admentor.
My problem is that this uses DNS less connection and I can't get this working on both the pages showing the ads and the admin panel.
I know it's the path to the database that causes this.
If I change this to suite the webpages showing ads, it work's, and if I modify it to suite the admin panel it work's.
But not both at the same time.
Should'nt this path be relative to the sites root ?
g_Admentor_strConnect = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ="& Server.MapPath("../ads/admentor/ad97.mdb")
when using this string, the webpages showing banners is working, but when clicking on these, the site calles a redirect .asp page that also uses this database connection. Then it fails, since this page is located in another folder in the site and therefore also gets another path to the database.
How can I get this to be a relative path working on all pages not been worried about folders, subfolders and correct paths to the base ???
Best regards

Hi, I went to school over 4 years ago learning ASP but I forgot almost everything.
I am able to setup a connection to a an Ms Access file and get information using Windowx XP's IIS.
I need to change the code where the location of the Access file is on my computer to my webhost.
In other words, I have uploaded all the pages and the Access db file but now the pages can't find the Access db because the file was original on my computer in a certain folder. Now that it is uploaded, I need to change the location where it searches for the db from my computer to my webhost.
I have not dealt with ASP for almost 5 years ago.
Please give advice, or websites or 3rd party programs that can do this for me.
I am trying to build a webiste where you enter the username and login then be able to retrieve information or update, or add new or delete from the Access db.
This should be a simple problem for most you professionals out there.

Hi,
I apologize first of all if this question is bounced up and down through out the forum all the time, and if there's already a topic on this, then it'd be perfect for me. But im not having any luck.
I do not know how to upload my database in a way that it will work when i try to use a page through microsoft frontpage to display results from it.
What are the accurate steps into creating a database connection? Thanks a bunch

Really don't know the answer to this question and I thought I'd come to the experts. I have created an Access database that I use to push & pull data from an SQL database through linked tables. I created an ODBC connection on my PC and set it so the links keep the username and password for the ODBC connection. All that works great...Now my question - Is it possible to somehow "store" the ODBC connection within the Access database so that I don't have to go to every PC that is going to be running this database and create an ODBC connection? The Access database and the SQL database both exist on our network and all those that will be using it have access to both. If someone has the answer I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

Hey,
Im doing a login page for my website, and i am having trouble connecting to the DB:
'Database connection info and driver
strCon = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};uid=;pwd=letmein; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath(strAccessDB)
where strAccessDB = "cs334-45/Kosy/Kosy.mdb"
cs334-45 is my computer name in the virtual directory.
Im getting this error:
Server.MapPath(), ASP 0172 (0x80004005)
The Path parameter for the MapPath method must be a virtual path. A physical path was used.
/Kosy/check_user.asp, line 21
I dont understand. I thought that the virtual directory was mapped to the physical directory
anyway? So why do I have to enter a virtual path?

Using Access 2013.
We have split a database and have about 6 users connected to a gigabit switch. There is a noticeable delay of about 5 to 15 seconds when we search by an account name. We are working with a split form, where it has the database records listed at the bottom half of the screen.
Is there a way to improve the performance? I tried a persistent connection, but it didn't seem to work and would occasionally get an error message.

I am looking to automate the process of linking my Access DB with an ODBC connection to an SQL DB with VBA (unless there's an easier way to do it?) - some sample code - if this is possible at all?

Dear Guys,
How to Establish the connection between Ms-Access2000 & Oracle using DAO Connection through Code?.
I created one table in Oracle and I created User-DSN in ODBC.
I linked that oracle table into Ms-Access MDB using Link table option in ms-Access.
Now, Whenever I open that mdb, we need to establish the ODBC connectivity automatically through code (I mean, we need to refresh automatically).
I need to hardcode all the information in the Ms-Access code.
My User DSN Name: abcd
Oracle Database Name: abcd
Schema Name(User Name): abcd
password: abcd

I have MDB database linked to SQL SERVER through VPN connection.I created links to the sql server Links are dsnless..Everything works fine but when I lost VPN connection or sql connection has been broken I can't refresh links to the tables.I receive message 3146 sql connection failed..I must close database and start again...
I tried different methods like ado,dao, and vba docmd.transferdatabase,aclink... but no success, table cant be relinked.
Only way I can relink is to change ip adress in conn.string
E.g. 192.124.0.2 (1st ip- router server ip) and after connection failed i can use 192.124.0.32 (2nd ip - server local ip) and that's it if i lost connection for the 3rd time... i must restart application.
It seems that access database keep the previous connection..how to reset or drop database connection to the sql server and refresh links to the tables with vba code without closing access database...

Right Ok i hope i can get some help cause im absolutely stumped..
i cant get my login page to work since moving it from my PWS(iis on xp) DSN connection
to a 24/7 server on the net with DSNless connection
here is the code for the include file "conntopwd.asp"
http://www.pritchardwebdesign.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/conntopwd.txt
the username and path has been changed slightly for security purposes,
and the code for the login page which attempts to access the database is here
http://www.pritchardwebdesign.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/login.txt
the connection has been tested by one of the tech support guys at brinkster and he told me it was ok,
the problem was the way that the data is called from the data base is wrong ..
The tech support guy said that it was this line that was causing the problem..
MM_rsUser.ActiveConnection = MM_conntopwd_STRING
Any help would be much appreciated as im stuck for now..

I have a data base that I use ADO primarly to connect to the backend access database. Each time I query a table I create a new connection and then kill the connection after I'm done with it. Should I be creating a global connection and leave open the entire time the program is open, or should I be killing the connection each time?

I simply want to create a connection to an Access db, and run an execute an SQL statement.
I have only used RecordSets in the past, so this ADO.NET is completely new to me.
Can someone give me a sample code to execute an SQL statement, and take the result and assign it to a string variable?
I can bind my results to a DataGrid, but if I need it in a string, what good does that do me???
Also, I am only familiar with VB, but if someone has to post it in C#, I'm sure I can figure it out! I appreciate any help.

hi everyone;
I'm trying to make an ADO connection to my local database named "dbTest.mdb".
Here is the code I'm writing in my editor:
Code: <body> <% Set CN =server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") CN.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:InetpubwwwrootNew FolderdatadbTest.mdb;Persist Security Info=False" Set RS =server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") Set RS.ActiveConnection = CN RS.Source = "select * from tblTest" RS.CursorLocation = adUseServer RS.CursorType = adOpenKeyset RS.LockType = adLockOptimistic RS.Open response.Write(RS.fields(0)) RS.close Set RS=Nothing %> </body>
and this error comes up in my browser:
Code: Error Type: ADODB.Recordset (0x800A0BB9) Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another. whats the problem with my code???!!

Good Morning,
Rookie Alert ! I am trying to incorporate simple Access database to web page. In page one, I use Database Results Wizard to display records in database. I pass parameter (last name) via hyperlink to second web page to view complete record. I always get no records found. When I asked tech support, they sent me this:
We do not have registered DSN's on the host server. You will need to use a DSN-less connection string using an absolute path to the file. The path to your account is c:accountsusername and from there you would add the path to the db within your home directory, I.E. -
"Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=c:accountsusernamewwwRootmydataba se.mdb;Uid=Admin;Pwd=;"
I have seen other references to this and I have tried what they said with no luck. Where in the page code would I put this? I am using Frontpage 2003. Any suggestions would be helpful or a working example would be nice.
To look at what I am doing, go to test page:

Thanks in advance.

I will create an Access application as a Front end application. The matter is that the users will need to update some data from Internet where there is a MySql server.
I thought in creating a local DSN to connect to that MySql server. Is it right ?
I already created it but... I dont know the code to connect it from Access.
Could you please help me with the code to write in Access ? Im a new with it. sorry.
Or you can send me an example of it in an Access database to: osvaldo@ord.com.ar
Thank you very much

Hi Everybody!
I am creating an Access database that will be used by multiple users. This database will be on the network and will be the front end of an oracle database connected to it via ODBC. Do I have to set up the ODBC to oracle only on the machine that hold the database on the network or do I have to set up an ODBC on each user's machine?
Thank you for your help.

I have a small access database that my users keep open all day long. Access 2000.
I have one primary version of the DB on the network. No one uses it. I have another file on the network that has linked tables to the primary db. I copy a version of this DB to each workstation.
So each user has a full blown DB on their desktop with linked tables back to the main DB. Is this a good set up or are there any issues doing this? What is the best set up for multiple users across the network? Thanks.

Hi There
one another database have started showing a new error
"the database has been placed in state by user 'Admin' on machine 'XXXXXX' that prevents it from being opened."
I read some of the articles on google and find out tht database splitting is solution for this.
Now my question is if after splitting i keep the front end and back end at the same location does it gonna effct some how?
i mean even after spliting if users use the same copy of database as fromt end. Does it make some sense.
Thanks
Danny

Hi all,
I have an .adp that works fine on a number of people's laptops.
One of the users however, keeps getting an error message stating that SQL Server does not exist or access has been denied.
This particular user is definitely setup on SQL Server with dbo permissions. She can also ping the server.
I have tried creating a DSN and this doesn't work either.
I am at a loss as to why this error message is occurring given that she can see the Server and has definitely been setup.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kabir
