I have an ASP page using OLEDB to connect to an Access97 db. In the Conn string I must use an explit path to the mdb, e.g. C:\inetpub\wwwroot\mydir\mydb.mdb - by doing this I also have to provide Read/Write to the NT INET user account to open file and query tables.

Since I am dealing w/ an ISP hosting my app, it's not easy to call them and ask them to add rw perms on my virtual directory. Is there a way around this?

Thanks in advance,
ChrisB
