The majority of the symptoms that were originally described (the effects of
failing to close an ODBC connection) are also reproduceable when using a SQL
server data source. Perhaps under Access the results are more catastrophic,
which would be inline with the symptoms that the poster decribed which were
more severe than what I have encountered. I do know that failure to close
an ODBC connection in ASP, regardless of the underlying database system,
will eventually cause any ASP code utilizing that connection to fail.
