deploying to my host

[Guest]

hey all,
i have an application that uses ms access for it's db. the db resides in a
folder on the same level as my application folder. how can i access the db?
i've been trying to use server.mappath with no luck because i'm not sure if
you can go up a level from the app folder.

thanks,
rodchar

Hello rodchar,

MapPath is bounded by your virtual folder, so put you db withing it.

You can create another virtual folder for DB either new one or above current
one
