Hi
I am using DSN to connect to the database
On my test server I m using Access 97
On my deployment server I want to use Access 2000
will it be a problem ?
DSN will be configured properly
Secondly, can I use Connection String in place of DSNs with sole purpose of avoiding DSN setup charges, in short, does using
connection strings require some additional charges ? (a bit off topic but of some interest :))
Thanks in advance

Hi
For the second question...
If you are using ADO for data access, instead of using ODBC DSN, you could
use OLEDB for Microsoft Jet 4.0 (MS Access 2000 only)
The connection string is like this:
strConn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=<path to .mdb
file>;User ID=" & chr(34) & strUserName & chr(34) & ";Password=" & chr(34) &
strPassword & chr(34)
Best regards / Cordialement

Or just:
strConnect = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=c:\db1.mdb;" & _
"User ID=Username;" & _
"Password=Whatever"
No need for Chr(34)
Cheers
