Hi Sergey,

I thought we (the customer network admin and I) made sure that the account does have the access rights. But as I was reading today about the ASP.NET security and relations between local account and domain accounts and active directories, I am sure we missed something. I understand much more about these things now than I did on Friday when I was really kind of doing trial and error approach. I will talk to the admin next week (I wish I could go there again, but they are out of town - in CT) and hopefully we will get it working with over-the-phone instructions.
Thank you for your help.

P.S. The downside of learning this ASP.NET security is that I burned myself at the beach while reading this stuff (I didn't pay attention to the time) <g>.

But when the data is on a difference server I get error message that Password and User name are required or not valid (something like that). The error message happens to be right on the Ole Db call so I figured that there is something to do with user rights.
