Instead of browsing you need to type in the server name or IP and path to
the location in which your datatbase hosted.

Subject: cf administrator
when setting up a new connection to a database i go thru these steps:
1. launch ie and type the cf admin page into the url.
2. then i get a security box asking me to login
3. then i see the admin page and i log into the administrator.
4. then i click on odbc
5. i name my database and choose mdb and add
here is where the problem is at.
my database that i want to connect to is not on my webserver. i do have a
dedicated drive, say G mapped to the server where the database is at.
however, when i click on browse, i only see the webservers drives: A-floppy,
C and D drive, and the E drive for disks.
do you think it could be a rights issue that i cannot see the other drive
mappings?
has anyone run into this problem?
thanks for your help.
bec.
