Connecting to Access Databse using ASP - HELP!!!!
Posted: 17 Mar 2003
I followed your example of connecting to an Access database using ASP. I successfully configured the DSN, and made the Access database identically as shown in your example.

However, on running the ASP code, I have a blank browser window. No error messages of any kind, just a blank window. This suggests to me that the DSN is not connecting to the Access database.

I have tried numerous different ASP connection coding examples from the internet, some using a DSN connection, others using a DSN-less connection (recommended by some ASP sites, which say Access is typically accessed via a DSN-less connection).

Am am running PWS in Windows 98. I know the PWS is working as I have successfully run other ASP code through the PWS server.

I would be very grateful for any assistance you could give so that I can finally get up and running! You might've guessed that I'm a newbie to ASP :o)

Thanks

Make sure that the database table is not empty, meaning there by that you must enter some records in that table for them to appear on your screen.

Please re-read Step-7 on this page: http://www.stardeveloper.com/articles/display.html?article=2000030903&page=1 .
