'
'  Use the ASP Server class CreateObject action to gain access
'  to the ADODB library on the web server to
'  create a connection object from the ADODB library
'  Connection class.
'  A connection object contains all data and actions for a database
'  connection via various techniques.
'  We are using the name oConn to represent our connection object.
'

Set oConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

'
'  Use a variable to represent the connection string required
'  by the connection object. The variable is optional and
'  is a discretion to make futher lines in the code needing this
'  easier to read and maintain.
'  The connection string is made of three parts.
'      1. PROVIDER=MICROSOFT.JET.OLEDB.4.0;DATA SOURCE=
'      2. The server path to our Access database
'          Use the ASP Request object
'          ServerVariables("APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH")
'          to dynamically get the database path.
'      3. The name of the access database

ConnString = "PROVIDER=MICROSOFT.JET.OLEDB.4.0;DATA SOURCE=" 
ConnString = ConnString & Request.ServerVariables("APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH")
ConnString = ConnString  & "WebMaster.mdb"

'
'
'  Testing feedback of the ConnString variable contents.
'

Response.Write "<center>Connection String = " & ConnString & "</center>"

'
'  Use the Connection object open action to establish a connection
'  to the Access database.
'

oConn.Open ConnString


'
'  If needed uncomment next line to see any error messages
'  that might be suppressed.
'Response.Write err.number & "- " & err.description
'
'  Use a variable to represent the SQL statement.
'  The variable is optional and is a discretion to make further
'  lines in the code needing this easier to read and maintain.
'  Select needed fields and matching records from the table WebClubMembers

SQL =        "Update WebClubMembers "
SQL = SQL &  "Set "
SQL = SQL &  "FirstName = '" & Request.Form("FirstName") & "', "
SQL = SQL &  "LastName = '" & Request.Form("LastName") & "', "
SQL = SQL &  "WebAddress = '" & Request.Form("WebAddress") & "', "
SQL = SQL &  "EmailAddress = '" & Request.Form("EmailAddress") & "' "
SQL = SQL & "Where sMemberNumber = " & Request.Form("memNo")

'
'  Testing feedback of the SQL variable contents.
'

Response.Write "<center>SQL Statement = " & SQL & "</center>"

'
'  Use the Connection object execute action to submit the
'  SQL statement to the database and receive an ADO Recordset
'  object back with a pointer to the first record.

set oRs = oConn.Execute (SQL)
