connection to DB w/ Dreamweaver and GoDaddy

i'm taking dreamweaver class right now. tells me setup database on server. on godaddy got databases, go access (that i'm using) , create dsn.. name same database , names "access_mydatabasename"

i got dreamweaver, open .asp page , in database panel press "+" sign , chose connection name , book says dsn name use 1 name.. i've tried, plus i've tried use the dsn name created on godaddy. books says create database "using dsn , testing server" have been able database load using "using local dsn", can't work when try upload it.

i'm geting http error code 400 bad request

and

error 80004005 - datea source name not found , no default driver specified. (which have gone control panel/administration tools , followed instructions added system dsn.

and error i'm getting:

files on machine named ftp....... not executed testing server. testing server site not map url. verify url prefix mapped root of site.

i've tried various things , same or different errors.

since book wants me "testing server" vs. "local server" database panel, work. think has lot of folders are. adding "class website" folder in hosting site have. uploading , working fine, before started database thing. hopefully, i'm making complicated is.

any suggestions?

thanks,

you created dsn on server, you're trying access same
dsn on local machine.

you need create identical dsn on local machine. think
can click "dsn..." button in connection dialog create
the local dsn.

fyi, there macromedia.dreamweaver.appdev forum might
a better response database questions.

hth,
randy
