MS Access Database not detected

[JMM1028 webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I am trying to create a user authentication system. I have put a Microsoft Access database containing the login information in the site folder. When I try assigning server behaviours to the login page, my database does not appear in the window. How do I make the database useable?

Thanks.

What server model are you using? Have you tried creating an ODBC binding
to your MS access database? Simply putting the Access database in the
site folder is not going to allow Dreamweaver to know that the database
is available for connections, nor how to connect to it. Also, I don't
recommend keeping it there in case you accidentally upload it to your
host into a public directory. It would allow anyone to directly download
your whole database.
