I am gettingthe following error message (caanot access database)
Error information:
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005)
Not a valid file name.
Other possible cause of this problem:
The database cannot be opened, most likely due to incorrect connection settings or insufficient security set on your database folder or file.
For more details please refer to http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q306518
Have added the demo file "internet.mdb" to the following:
www.uk101.com/codecharge/portal
and I have updated common.asp to the following:
ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;User ID=Admin;Data Source=http://www.uk101.com/codecharge/portal/Internet.mdb;Persist Security Info=False"
Any ideas as to hy it wont work

Make sure the IUSR_machinename account has read/write privileges on the
database. Also you will need to change the document search order in IIS so
it looks for default.asp before default.html.

The problem appears to be in your string:
http://www.uk101.com/codecharge/portal/Internet.mdb
Please replace it with the standard Windows path, for example:
c:\wwwroot\inetpub\...\Internet.mdb
Your hosting company may need to provide you with exact instructions.

How stupid of me!!!
I was adding the address rather than the local details for the server.
Gor confused when I saw c:\wwwroot\inetpub. I thought that it was set up to work on a localhost.
THANKSSS
