"Unspecified error" when using Access DB in Frontpage as Main Connection

R

Red Stapler

Hi all,

I've gotten to this point and have run straight into a wall.

There are 2 InfoPath forms on my hard drive with a Access db backend.
Now I am ready to put these forms in Frontpage to share. In frontpage,
I imported the database from my local drive simply by File -> Import.
Then I open each InfoPath form and File -> Export to -> Web. So now on
FP I have a folder with 1 Access db, 2 IP forms all in a fpdb folder.
When testing, I open the form through the webpage, then fill out the
forms and submit it. The data does not update the db in FP but rather
it updates the data on my local drive? So, I open the forms again and
change the main data source to point to where the access db is located
in the FP fpdb folder. When I do so, I run through all the steps:
....choose dB, choose tables, and then I get an error message? Error
message says I must select either access or sql data source? This is
where I'm stumped because obviously I did choose the access db in the
FP folder. How do I get the forms to point to the access db in
frontpage without going to my local copy?

Thanks in advance.
