Hi everyone:

I am running a website through a webhost using a IIS ver 4.0 NT 
web server. I have a shopping cart system on the site that uses an 
Access97 database for it's main resource. The web host set the 
DSN for the control of this database for me.

I now have the need to add another application that has it's own 
database as well. Since I have never set up more than one 
database on a website before, I was wondering if it is possible to 
have more than one database running on a single website? If so, do 
you use two separate DSN names? Any information on setting this 
up or not doing it would be swell!

TIA

Jim H
