You have a misconception about DAP pages here: they can be executed from
anywhere from Internet and, as such, have no notion about the location of
your local server; this even in the case if they are located or served from
your web server. When they are viewed in the user browser, the location
from where they come is lost and unknown to them.

You must use a permanent TCP/IP address or use a dynamic relocation service,
such as No-Ip.com (free for the base services). It is also highly probable
that you will have to configure your router to redirect the incoming call to
your machine. Each time you will configure your router, it will reset
itself and probably will change its ip address (both WAN and LAN), so you
will have to update your new tcp/ip address at No-Ip.com with the provided
software.

This is the connection string of one of the DAP iīm
trying to deploy:

Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=False;User
ID=sa;Initial Catalog=DBSAV51;Data Source=(local);Use
Procedure for Prepare=1;Auto Translate=True;Packet
Size=4096;Workstation ID=SERVIDOR;Use Encryption for
Data=False;Tag with column collation when possible=False

i tried changing the data source (local) to the server
name:

Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=False;User
ID=sa;Initial Catalog=DBSAV51;Data Source=Servidor;Use
Procedure for Prepare=1;Auto Translate=True;Packet
Size=4096;Workstation ID=SERVIDOR;Use Encryption for
Data=False;Tag with column collation when possible=False

Ihave also tried with an odc file connection:

..\..\Program files\Office\Office10\Samples\
NorthwindCS.odc

and changing it path to UNC
\\Servidor\conecctionfiles\NorthwindCS.odc

or placing the odc file and the DAP in the same folder
so the connection file path is: NorthwindCS.odc

I hope you can help me out with this , thanks again
