Thank you for the help rendered , i used this

cst = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/testbuilder/database/test.mdb")
    set test_connector = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    test_connector.open cst

but after going through the process i came up with this problem below:

The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\testbuilder\database\test.mdb' . It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
/testbuilder/default.asp, line 7


please help me ,thanks.

Assuming that you don't have the database open in Access then this is a permissions problem. You need to give the IUSR_<<MachineName>> read and write permissions to the database folder.
