data access pages - not displaying

[Guest]

Hi,

I have a problem with the data and control not being displayed on my machine.

I have published a test page on my windows 2003 server.

Test 1: Logged onto the web server (win 20003) via terminal services. When i
double click on the page it displays fine and I can move up and down the
recordset/dataset. If browser i.e. http://testserver/testpage.htm via
internet explorer only the title header shows i.e. no data or data control.

Test 2: browse via IE6 on a windows 2k pc once again only the title header
shows ie no data or data control.

Test 3: browse via IE6 on a windows XP pc it displays fine and I can move up
and down the recordset/dataset.

I assume there is a security setting somewhere that I am missing any
suggestions would be much appreciated

Thanks.

however, it's quite possible that when using IE6 on Win2000, the driver
recognise that the database is located on the LAN and open it with the
proper protocol/library while the driver on WinXP doesn't recognise it and
try to use the D

Make sure to specify a UNC filepath to locate the MDB database for the DBQ
parameter (ODBC) or the Data Source parameter (OLEDB) and you shouldn't have
any problem to access the database on the network share.
