I have been working in MS Access for while.  I now web enabling some my

access projects.  I am relatively new to asp. What I need is this.



Due to security I need to use virtual directories. I have not done this 

before to my knowledge. How would i go about doing this in asp's so that I

can update and add new records to my access mdb's.  Thanks for all your 

help.

Hey Al, 



As far as I know we store all files under the root which could have 

different folders. You could create different asp pages for inserting and 

updating records and store them under the root directory and execute them 

in your browser. I am not sure as to what you mean when you say virtual 

directories. 



Good Luck!!

Um, virtual directories don't really have anything to do with security...



Suppose your website starts at:

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\



Suppose you have a folder:

c:\somefolder

and you want to add c:\somefolder to your website. You can add it as a

virtual directory under the webroot and access it thusly:

http://www.myserver.com/somefolder



Secondly, I dont't think that the process that you'd used for interacting

with Access (ADO) has anything to do with virtual directories either.
