I'm using UD on a Mac and trying to connect to an Access database over a local network. I'm able to FTP to the PC and see my files through the Application Server, but when I try using a DSN, the connection fails. Help!

You need to get an ODBC connection setup on the server so that everyone on the network can use the DB.

Ask admin to set this up for you, just tell them the path of the db.

Not helpful, but buy a Windows Machine, I was a Mac User for 10 years, I bought a Dell and Life has definitely gotten much easier. I know I am going to get flamed like crazy for this, but it's true. Windows 2000 has only crashed on me 2x in 10 months, I use all the Adobe products as well as Macromedia. The only product that Windows sucks on is GoLive, but then again that's not much of a loss...
