Connecting with Access

Question

Hi, I trying to connect with a db created with Access, let say "Datab.mdb".
I used the following script:
try{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"); //which seams to work fine
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println(e);
return;
try{
conn= DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Datab","","");
statem = conn.createStatement();
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println(e); //it enters to the exception!!
return;
The message is that it doesn't find the database, I tried to put the file "Datab.mdb" almost everywhere, but it still doesn't find it, I also tried
conn= DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Datab.mdb","","");
but still no success.
Please, can anyone help me.
Thanks
