http 400 error

Thanks for the response Alsct, but it didn't help. Same error! This is driving me insane!! Any recommendations for good inexpensive hosting??

I have two websites on dfferent servers and in both cases my connection string is "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("/database/mymdb.mdb")
ie. without /ourhaley.com/ and no final &";"

You can but try.

Not paying attention. I got the above error when I test on local machine. Testing on remote server yields same error as before. http 400 error bad request. :(

Okay now we seem to be making some progress. I'm getting a different error message at least!! Now the error message is "Format of the iniitialization string does not conform to the OLE DB specification". I tried to copy and paste the string from you message but it would only copy one line at a time so I'm not sure if I have spaces where they need to be, etc. This is the string as it is in Dreamweaver: "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=
" & Server.MapPath("/ourhaley.com/database/haley.mdb") & ";Persist Security Info=False"

Use a Jet OleDb connection string to connect to access, it gives better
performance and is also DSN less

"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" &
Server.MapPath("/ourhaley.com/database/haley.mdb") & ";Persist Security
Info=False"

Thanks for the quick response Ken. Sadly I have tried that and just tried it again and still getting the same error. Any other ideas?
Mike

Try backslashes instead of forward slashes:

"DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("\ourhaley.com\database\haley.mdb") & ";"
