Hello group,

I am attempting to make my database available on the Internet so that
users can simply work from the asp forms that were designed. I do not
have IIS server on my desktop (which requires Win XP pro or win server
versions) so I am attempting to set it up directly on my webserver
which has asp enabled.

What I am planning to do is place the database in a seperate folder on
the webserver and use a path to that location as my DB file
location.

So I have 2 questions:

1) Is my methodology sound

2) if it is sounds, what is the connection string that I need to use
in the asp files so that it looks at the DB on my server.

Many thanks!

.
