Check all your paths
If I run EmployProcess.htm to get Employment1.asp the error is
Data source name not found and no default driver specified
/secure/Employment1.asp, line 10
- implies the txt db _private/eform_results.txt was not found or the schema for it is missing
The folder "secure" is not apparently not a subweb so the path to _private/eform_results.txt should probably be
../_private/eform_results.txt (in your root web)
Test each form individually to see which one is breaking the chain w/ and w/o the file upload component

| Hello Stefan, Thank you for your help. I have checked and rechecked my code
| and did not find anything out of the way. This code worked on Windows 2000
| Server and IIS 5. If it had never worked I can see the code as being the
| problem. But there must have been something that happened between the move
| to the Windows 2003 Server machine. I am still digging for an answer.
