Hi Paul!
I am trying to read and display the contents of a .dbf
file. here is the connection string I used:
"Driver={Microsoft dBASE Driver
(*.dbf)};DriverID=533;Dbq=c:\inetpub\wwwroot\tupperwarenet\01w25080\POD08025.DBF;"
Here is the error I got:
[Microsoft][ODBC dBase Driver] '(unknown)' 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.
I swear that the path is correct. What could be wrong?

Should there be quotes around the path in your connection string?

Hi Nancy
Here is the connection string I use check the case:
<%
strConnect = "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver
(*.mdb)};DBQ=I:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ParNite2002\parnite.mdb"
%>
There are two possible places the case could be wrong "DBQ" and the name
of the file.

Open ODBC and try to create a DSN for this file. If that works, you can copy
the connection string from the DSN file. If it doesn't work, it's likely the
driver that's not working...
