Dave, I do not know if your question was answered or not. What version of CFAS are you using? MS SQL Server is only supported on CF Pro and CF ENT. Thank You, Peter Peter J.

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. d -----Original Message----- From: Sean Daniels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 23, 2001 12:25 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: SQL2000 server not recognized by CF 4.5 On 4/23/01 1:52 PM David Baskin wrote: > I'm hoping someone can help with a problem i cannot figure out. i have a new > box with Win2K, CF 4.5, and SQL2000.

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. - Sean ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
