What does this line of code mean? ASP code

[DAM]

set conn = server.createobject ("adodb.connection")
conn.open "ASPBook", "ap", "yourpassword" <------


I am not sure I understand the what connection is being open? is that 3 different adodb connections?



Thanks for your input.



dam()

i dunno asp that well, but i think you're opening a connection to a database... ASPBook being the db, ap being the username, and yourpassword being the password.

Yup, it's a opening a connection to a database that has a DSN named ASPBook followed by the username and a password.

ASP isn't a language. That looks like VB Script.

ASP (Active Server Pages) is a scripting language. And because it was 'developed' by Microsoft, I'm not at all surprised it uses VBscript.
