I have an asp page that has drop downs and a list box which is populated via
a database. Now, I can run this page and have it work on my local pc and my
test web server, BUT when I migrate it out to the production web server the
drop downs and list boxes are not being populated. I have other pages
connecting to the database and working fine on the prod server, its just this
one page that is not working correctly. I did a compare of the file from the
production server and the test box and they are the same, so I then compared
the folder(s) from prod to test and they to are the same, so what would cause
this page to fail in production but work locally and on the test server?

I don't know how you'd expect us to know without any details: error
messages, code, etc.

One question I have, based on your screen name: is this really an aspx page?
If so, you're in the wrong place:
There was no way for you to know it, but this is a classic asp newsgroup.
While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to a newsgroup where the dotnet-savvy people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

OK ... so more details?Error messages? Perhaps a bit of code we could run to
try and reproduce the problem?
