Yes, of course. You can store your database in the root directory and then access it like this:

Server.MapPath(“../mydatabase.mdb”)

However, you’d have to request us to enable parent paths for your account by emailing [email protected]. Otherwise, “..” would not work

Or, if you want to use hard-coded path, you can look up for it running such script:

Server.MapPath("/")
