Hi all,

I am working on my laptop on developing a web application for my company. I have installed ColdFusion Developer Edition and have Dreamweaver. I am trying to connect my Data Source to my Access Database which is on my z: network drive. This drive links to my network folder in the office which is backed up daily. Therefore I want to keep my testing database on that drive so it is backed up.

However, when I go to link the data source in the administrator I only see local drives. Any ideas????

Thanks,

Ivan

here is some good info for something like that.

You may want to try a UNC path or just type the directory path in by hand.
