Hello everyone, i sent an email two days ago about not being able to get CF
and SQL2000 to talk to each other. i followed the instructions everyone sent
me including installing the latest MDAC and still, i couldn't get them to
talk to each other. i did finally get them to talk by checking the "use
trusted connection" checkbox, but someone at work told me that i hadn't
fixed any problem, i'd just gone around it. of course, i really don't know
what he means by that at all. As you might have guessed, i'm new to server
admin. Also, i can't even get an access DB to be recognized. CF just tells
me the datasource cannot be verified. i've added it in my ODBC panel under
SystemDSN, but the problem persists with getting CF to talk to databases. if
anyone can shed any light onto this problem i would greatly appreciate it.
thanks in advance.

Have you reinstalled the MDAC since installing CF 4.5? If not, pop the
windows 2K CD in and run the upgrade and this will fix the MDAC that gets
broken when you install CF 4.5.
