When you put flash memory to the machine does it recognize as a drive ? Then
just use the drive letter in the database connection code

if you are trying to run the asp pages and database right off the flash
drive at the clients house it wont work.
aspo pages need to run through a webserver.

The smart thing to do is show him the site on w laptop computer running IIS
or put it up on a test web site he can view from his location

Ken,
He says his database is in flash not the web project. Thats why I mentioned
as long as it recognizes teh flash memory as a drive (assumign he is using MS
Access), he can just point his datbase to flahs drive and run ASP pages from
his laptop

Thanks for your help guys. I think I've sorted this now.
The client has XP Pro on his computer so will have IIS running. If I copy
the files to his computer I should be able to open via localhost in Internet
Explorer.

Only copying is not enoguh. You will have to create a website/virtual
directory and the point to that.
Let me know if you need any more help

Ian,

I often use a testing area hosted on the Web where I can show off work
I've done and let the client test things out before actually paying for
them (and then FTP transferring the files to his Web host).

Could anyone help out with this one?
I have developed a .asp web site with Dreamweaver and everything works.
Before I upload it to a server I want to show it to the client. It and
the database are saved on to a portable Flash memory stick but all the
browser will open is the .htm page. How do I get it to display the .asp
pages? I
don't want to upload this before agreement but at the moment I can't
think of
a way around this.
