Hi.  I'll try to help you with this so we can both better understand 
what's going on.  Please be patient with me.  It's been a while since I 
touched ASP, and currently do not have a test platform.  At present I am 
only aware of http://domaindlx.com/ with their free ASP hosting with 
Microsoft Access via connectionless DN with ADODB.

If you provide a specific example of what you are trying to do, what you 
are expecting, and what you are observing, then I will be much closer to 
understanding the situation.  Please do the following to help me:

1) Isolate the specific example of the code that causes the problem.
2) Duplicate the error at DomainDLX.
3) Zip up the files and send to me with your commentary.

This will greatly help speed up the process.  Wether it's a bug in the 
code, or in the documentation, or something else, I am not sure so I 
can't rule anything out at this point.
