When creating a tutorial it's always a good idea to go slow. You are moving WAAY too fast for the general user and need to make sure you going through the step in a clear, concise and leisurely manner.

GREAT VIDEO....It explains it all...THANKS

[MrsChuCheeks]

i dont have the devTemp file so i dont have anything to select when u click select (0:49-1:01)... PLEASE HELP

[gngabriel29]

You can create your own microsoft access database file, just open microsoft access.

1. Select file > new

2. Click Blank Database, to create a new blank database file

3. Enter a name for the file, eg. devTmp.mdb

3. Click Create button

Note: its now up to you to create tables you want to use, or not create any tables at all

what so u cant make a database for login, just on dreamweaver? you have to use another software or something? :S

[gngabriel29]

this tutorial uses the database file created by microsoft access, and most users would already have microsoft access installed on their pcs, as microsoft access is a program included in the microsoft office suite

[toxic2k7]

thanks! but i searched microsoft access in Start, and all that comes up is a bunch of dreamweaver files called ''InstallSetup'' and ''WizardImage1''...they look like HTML files to me but i havent clicked on them yet..what shall i do?

[gngabriel29]

please click Start button, then click Run, to open the run dialog.

then type: msaccess

and press enter

if you have microsoft access installed, then this should open microsoft access, if nothing happen, then you might try finding your microsoft office cd, and use it to reinstall microsoft access, which is part of the microsoft office suite

one alternative to microsoft is to use a freeware database program called mysql, but setup of mysql is quite a bit different from that for microsoft access

[toxic2k7]

yh it doesnt come up :( so i should download MySQL for free and then set it up? plus does it work with Dreamweaver as good as msaccess?

[gngabriel29]

mysql is quite different from ms access to use and setup.

if possible, you should try to find the msoffice setup cd, and try to reinstall microsoft access, as the tutorials will not quite work exactly the same for mysql as for msaccess

Hi, wonderful video I followed everything but only at the end I couldn't follow. I have dreamweaver CS4 and I can not find application/databases/data source name. Help please I am almost there. THANKS.

[stanace27]

hi again, you select devtemp? then dbfiles, but I cannot find these. I typed test in data source name and then clicked on select but can not find devtemp or dbfiles? Please help

[stanace27]

hi, good video, but i'm very new to this, when you go to drive d and select some files, how did you do that, i go to drive c but what am i selecting?

thanks

[leotakesleo]

by any chance do you have any idea  why i am not able to connect to a database through web developer 2005 express?...i had tried both sql server 2005 express and sql server 2008...:(........do you have any experience with that?

[gngabriel29]

hmm, don't have that much experience with sql server express, but the usual things to double check on for server access is that correct username and password is entered, as well as correctly machine (eg. machine name is set)

if your database server is on same machine as web developer express, then can use localhost as machine name.

[benjaminfj1]

bro i hav not started but you make it so simple good luck on you

[gngabriel29]

thanks bro, great to hear that its been helpful to ya, and good luck to ya too =>

[benjaminfj1]

i seem not to be allowed to do database on D drive can it be done on C Drive pliz let me know

[gngabriel29]

hi benjamin, you can place the database on any drive you wish.

when you're at the odbc microsoft access setup, and click the select button, you can browse to wherever your access file is, even if its on drive c (the drive the access database file does not need to be drive d)

hope this helps, and let me know if you have further queries ^_^
