Database Deployment problem ?

[Mark]

How to avoid the connection string problem when i try to deploy my
application on an another computer

I'm using an Access 2003 db an get an error when i try to use my prog.
The programs can't find the db. and try to reach the db with the wrong path
E:\database\yyyy.mdb who doesn't exist on the pc

There is a solution like "Server.MapPath" to retrieve the path of the
installed application ?
Or any other solution ?

I'm using OLEDB and no DSN
the problem is only in the conection string cause if i put the db in a
coressponding path on the computer everything work fine

Mark,

There is the application class where you can find a lot. (By instance
applicationpath
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...systemwindowsformsapplicationmemberstopic.asp

(See the last 3 public properties in that)

However here I think it is more the
File.exist that you need

I hope this helps?
