Can't view tables in rs window?

Question

I am trying to work on a page/site that someone else began
outside of DW.
The code currently includes a file with it's own connection
string:
CONN = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;DATA SOURCE=[path];
and the page works fine up on the site. This original page is
very simple
and loops to list some data from the database as plain text.
When I try to make the connection in DW, however, while I CAN
make a
successful connection in the connection string window, once I
am at the
recordset window I can't view any of the database tables or
queries.
I looked up the problem online and found suggestions to use
ODBC connections
instead of OLEDB connections -- tried that, but same results.
I get an
error when I try to view the tables:
Error calling GetTables:
an unidentified error has occurred.
Anyone have a solution??

Answer 1

I too am currently having this problem. HELP.
when I try to create a recordset to an ACCESS database, i get
the same error...
error calling getTables; an unidentifed error has occurred.
I dont handle the server...I am just a lonely servant. the
admin is telling me nothing has occured on his end....so Im
thinking it has to be a macromedia issue.
now Im finding others with the same problem.
but is there a fix.
