Hi<br />
I have tried setting up a DSN to a user in my DB and then specifying the DSN in the connection string but to no avail. &nbsp;I need my Active Server pages to work on my laptop (with Windows 2003) for a presentation only so I'm not worried about security and as it's getting close to my presentation I urgently need the simplest way to connect to the DB and run the pages. &nbsp;Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.
