I tried using the direct connect string (the "DSN={Microsoft Access (*.mdb)};..." thing...no different.

Like I said...it works on all the other pages of the web site. They all use the same basic connection algorithm. I used the:

Response.Write objConnect.ConnectionString

...to return the actual connection string it was using on both the home page and on another page that worked. They were both identical.

Could this be a problem with the FrontPage extensions? Could it be a corrupt database? Is there an issue with ODBC? If I could find a place to look next, I could atleast do some more testing. I don't want to contact my hosting companies tech support again with another "...can you try this..." message until I have a little more direction.

Thanks again for your help.
