Using a Recordset

[John Cowen]

I'm trying to expand my web design skills by learning how to include some
dynamic content in a site.

Currently I have an Access database, and seem to have defined the connections
to it correctly from Dreamweaver.

I've set up a Recordset and tested the connection which is OK. I've dragged
across each data source from the Bindings window and then tried to test the
page using both the Live Data test in Dreamweaver and opening from IE. Every
time I get the error message: 'An error occured while requesting the document
from the testing server' - Could not use '(unknown)' file already in use. (I've
checked that the file is not open anywhere else).

I'm then shown a file path to the web page on with an extension to the file
name of _25em5d7874.asp line 5.

Line 5 is: rsContacts.ActiveConnection = MM_myContacts_STRING;

Any ideas?

Thanks
-John

It is caused by a permissions issue on the database file that you need to
fix in IIS. Julian has a tutorial on his site at [url]www.charon.co.uk[/url] on how to
set up permissions.
