For two days i've been trying to make a connection to my database and it is becoming a nightmare, driving me nuts.W3scools does not talk you through it, only gives code which does nothing for me fortunately,.When i open my file, and attempt to make a connectio in "application-databases" after clicking + it gives me two options 'OLE DB Connection' or 'SQL server connection'. i tried both, but i believe i need the first one,than; it displays a window and i name my connection vvv, in connection string field i put: "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=aspx\freeview.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;" this code, when i press test it displays this error message,'C:\winnt\systems32\aspx\freeview.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.this is the exact message it displays.and i haven't even got a folder named "winnt" and i never told it to go and get there.and that my swerver works i know becayse asp driven database is working ok. same database.Can anyone advice me how to connect this database to my .aspx pages?Thank you

change your connection stirng ot the following

"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aspx\freeview.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;"

if a starting point is not specified then it starts at c:\winnt\system32\

no it does not work, same message, also i'm connected to the server not my local database, and i have by palying around made the connection with this code "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;"&"Data Source="&server.mappath("../database/freeview.mdb")&";", however, when i do test it says connection is successful, but when i press ok it does not create a connection. why?

I think this illustrates the fact that unless you know how to program you shouldn't be using a GUI that tries to do it for you.Dreamweaver has created it's own assemblies to try and run your request. I doubt there is any way to view the source of these assemblies.

Also take notice of this part of your error message: "File or assembly name DreamweaverCtrls, or one of its dependencies, was not found.". It looks like you're missing a reference somewhere. As I've never used Dreamweaver, I'm afraid I won't be of any more help.Notice how the LOG lines are telling you that .NET is looking for DreamweaverCtrls.DLL but can't find it in a number of directories? Find that file, place it in one of those directories, and your problem may go away.
