Thanks for the reply Douglas. Network Solutions instructions are to place
the database in a folder (that they provide) named /htdocs/db/
Then they say that I should point my Data Access Pages to the MDB file in
that location.
I did this. The error messages I get are "Data provider could not be
initialised" and "Not a valid filename".
Network Solutions specifically state that an MDB file is acceptable. The
webpages together with the Data Access Pages work perfectly in a test
environment on my computer before I upload them to the website. The Data
Source in the HTML code is set to ".../db/Register.mdb" (Register is the name
of the database). I have been in regular contact with Network Solutions
outsourced customer support but they have not been able to help.
I know that ASP or ASP.NET would probably solve the problem but I reiterate
that Network Solutions state clearly that an MDB is acceptable. And I really
do not want to begin climbing a new learning curve with ASP.NET.

"will not link properly" doesn't tell us much.
How are you trying to link them? What error are you getting? What sort of
webpage is it (ASP, PHP, etc.)?
