| | | | ok thanks.

| | is that something I can check myself (the permissions) or do I have to axe the host
| |
| |

| | | | | | Thanks guys, very helpful.
| | |
| | | The db is for a asp based forum. I can shut down the forum while (and if) I need to make db
| | changes.
| | | I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't corrupt the db by opening it live - I understand about the
| | db
| | | synch-age.
| | |
| | | Once the forum is open to my public, yes I will make backups down to my local machine (one way
| | | down...right?) - I usually keep backups of the backups
| | |
| | | The FSO thing is perplexing, I will have to see if I can duplicate it. I guess I was axing if it
| | was
| | | the kind of thing that needed write permissions.
| | |
| | | Back to scraping my 'puter off the wall...

| | | | >Host ; Running Windows 2003 server with Access enabled &

| | | | >
| | | | >If I open the Access database on the host/remote server

| | | |
| | | | Oh, I hate when that happens. I get bits all over the
| | | | curtains, the rug, down my shirt...
| | | |
| | | | I presume the operation you're contemplating (or using) is
| | | | to open the remote site in FrontPage, then double-click
| | | | the .mdb file. This downloads a copy of the .mdb file to
| | | | your PC and opens it in Access. Then, whenever you switch
| | | | back to FrontPage, FrontPage checks to see if the .mdb
| | | | file has changed. If it has, FrontPage copies it back to
| | | | the Web server.
| | | |
| | | | The pitfall is that if visitors have been updating the
| | | | database, during all this, you'll overwrite their changes.
| | | | For example:
| | | |
| | | | o At 9:00 you download and open the database.
| | | | o At 9:02 some visitor makes a change.
| | | | o At 9:04 you upload a modified database, overwriting
| | | | the 9:02 changes.
| | | |
| | | | >Any other rules I should be aware of?
| | | |
| | | | If possible, avoid opening the remote database through
| | | | FrontPage. If that's not possible:
| | | |
| | | | o Make such changes at times of least visitor activity.
| | | | o Minimize the time between downloading and uploading.
| | | |
| | | | If you have daily or weekly jobs you need to run against
| | | | the database, run them somehow on the Web server.
| | | |
| | | | If you need to do batch reporting, run the reports off
| | | | your backup copies. (You *have* thought about pulling down
| | | | a daily backup copy, right?)

| | | |
| | | | This is very tough without more info, but FSO stands for
| | | | FileSystemObject, an ActiveX control that can read and
| | | | write files and folders in the server's file system.
| | | | Apparently, you host has some security in effect that you
| | | | don't. I can't be more specific without the exact error
| | | | message.
