[Zope] Sharing Database connections and/or methods between Zo pes?

[Schmidt, Allen J.]

Nope, sorry... I ALWAYS make sure they are SYSTEM DSNs that get created. I
removed and created and removed and created several times all with the same
results; and, all while logged on as administrator.

Thanks!!

I have one last thing to offer.  With ODBC, there are "user" DSN and
"system" DSN.  You want to be using a "system" DSN, but usually it's "user"
connections that get set up.  If your Access DSN is not a "system" type,
create one and test that.  Set it up when you are logged in as
Administrator.  I bet it will work.

Let us know how it works out, please.
Cheers,
