Set Conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Conn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=d:\home\mysite.com\db\myfile.mdb;"


MySQL Connection String (ASP)

Dim conDB
Dim rs
'--Set the connection
Set conDB = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
'--You may need to use OPTION=3 instead of 16834
conDB.Open "DRIVER=MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver;SERVER=mysql10.hostek.com;OPTION=16834;USER=db_un;Password=db_pw;DATABASE=db_name"
'--Set the recordset
Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")


MSSQL Connection String (ASP)
