You cannot have a DB connection to a FTP access.
FTP, as the name file Transfer Protocol Suggests, simply transfers files. It
does not support File opening.
You mah have to use a Maped drive or proper netwrok path
("\\ServerName\ShareName\")

hi alex,
just looked up mapping a drive in the w2k help - it was a bit vague!
gonna have a look around on the web for instructions on how to do this.
had been using 'add network place' to bring the database folder in as a
ftp folder but it wont let me name it up as you suggested.
so will this basically appear as a network drive that the whole pc can
see??
cheers,
jake
