ASPRunnerPro General questions

I don't understand the naming of the odbc database that asprunner does.
I have my database on the server. I "point" to it (protrack.mdb). It then names my database: protrack[1] and places that in the subdirectory under output. When everything is generator, I ftp it all to the web server.
When I checked out my orignal database on the web (protrack.mdb), this was not changed, but protrack[1].mdb was??? Can you explain this. I'm very confused on how asp works and then don't work.
Thx,

Cyndi,
ASPRunnerPro do not add postfixes like [1] to database name. That must be something different that causes this problem.

It's putting this in the database path that is odbc:
C:\Documents and Settings\Cindy_MOBILE\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\GH0JBC4W\PROTRACK[2].mdb
Could this be the odbc driver doing this?

Cindy,
this is folder where Internet Explorer stores Temporary Internet Files (

C:\Documents and Settings\Cindy_MOBILE\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\GH0JBC4W). Instead of opening MS Access database on the Web save it to some location on your harddrive.

I was thinking that the asprunner had to "grab" it from the web into order to do the .asp generation. o.k. I think I understand. Thx, Cyndi
