Ok, I made my file with UltraDev and it works fine on my local server but when I upload it to my server (www.brinkster.com which is made for ASP) I get an error message that it cant display the page. I uploaded the connection in a folder "Connections". I looked at the connection file and It says

&lt;%
' FileName="Connection_odbc_conn_dsn.htm"
' Type="ADO"
' HTTP="false"
' Catalog=""
' Schema=""
MM_guestbook_STRING = "dsn=guestbook;"
%


Is this looking for a file that is not there (FileName="Connection_odbc_conn_dsn.htm"

Thanks

actually, you'll notice that the line you refer to is commented out.

I think the realy problem lies with the fact that brinkster doesn't support DSNs (along with reliable servers <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>

you must use a dsn-less connection... they go over it in the FAQs at brinkster.
