Please people, been trying to set this up for days with out much help. All I am trying to do upload the work I have done locally to my Coldfusion powered hosting account.
I have been using Dreamweaver and Coldufsion MX 6.1 to work through the tutorials given on the Macromedia >> Coldfusion >> Getting Started page.
All is well and good, I have created a database driven page that pulls content from the database.... nice (well I a a beginner).
Now all I want to do is upload it to my 'shared' coldfusion mx hosting account. My shared server only accepts MS Access files >>> no probs, the tutorials were created using Access. I uploaded the Access file via my hosting server control panel (HELM) using the following options:
ODBC DSN Type: Microsoft Access Data Source Name: CFTutorial Microsoft Access File: \db \CFTutorials.mdb
Despite the little knowledge I have of data driven content, I get the feeling that I need to reference the 'online version' of the database file in my dreamweaver pages?????? Locally, I have defined a database from the Coldfusion Admin page via the Data sources option (yay) all the fields show up in Dreamweaver but how do I get this from the remote version (do I even need to if I am editing locally first).
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP.... I have literally wasted a week trying to get this working. Thanks
