I can connect to a VFP data table without a DSN using ADO on an ASP page through IIS4 with no problems. So far I have only tested this under the scenario where the data tables and the IIS server are on the same machine.

However, I now need to connect to a VFP data source on another server and am kind of lost as to how to get there....

I've tried to specify the IP Address of the server in the connect string of the ADODB.Connection string. I've used something like the following: (i.e., "http://X.X.X.X/data/tablename.dbf")

I get errors in the connection...

Any ideas how to specify another server in the connection string?

Thanks in advance...
Michael
