I have followed to the letter, instructions of how to install a database on my FP2003 website using a simple Access database loaded up to my remore server and having used the database wizard very accurately. When I fill in the form (http://hungary4.com/tranzlate/links.asp) and submit, a field confirmation page is shown. However, whenI try to access the Database Editor I get thze following message:

Database Results Wizard Error
The database connection named 'links_database' is undefined.

This problem can occur if:
* the connection has been removed from the web
* the file 'global.asa' is missing or contains errors
* the root folder does not have Scripting permissions enabled
* the web is not marked as an Application Root

(I have the global asa file in place).

I should mention that I have two web domains on my MS Server and have to use a small piece of code to allow the two sites to work independently. This code is as follows:

<%EnableSessionState=False

host = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_HOST")

if host = "tranzlate.co.uk.com" or host = "www.tranzlate.co.uk" then
response.redirect("http://hungary4/tranzlate/index.htm")

Cab anyone help out there because this is very frustrating as I have been unable to find any online help with this problem from Microsoft.
