What error are you getting? It also may help to see a copy of the code you are using.

Try this:
<%@ Page Language="C#" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.OleDb" %> <script Language="C#" runat="server"> void Page_Load() { string strConnect; OleDbConnection objConnect = null; strConnect = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OleDb.4.0;Data Source=C:\BegASPNET\Ch12\Northwind.mdb"; objConnect = new OleDbConnection(strConnect); objConnect.Open(); }
</script>
