JP --
Regarding #1, yes, but the target database's path/filename in the ODBC datasource
definition can't be defined in terms of a
mapped drive letter. Rather, you have to use the standard UNC pathname, e.g.,
\\<machine-name>\<path>\<file>
There are additional caveats regarding access permissions, etc. This subject has been
covered many times over the past few
years in the Allaire forums (forums.allaire.com). There may even be a whitepaper
about it in the knowledgebase.
Good luck.
