Exclusive Windows Platform Control Panel Features

Database Source Names (DSN) are data structures used to describe a connection to a database. Using the control panel, you can add up to 100 DSNs for connecting to Microsoft Access, Excel, SQL Server or MySQL.

You can deploy unlimited number of Microsoft Access Databases within any Windows Hosting package. We have created a Private Database Folder within your web space where you should upload/create all Microsoft Access Databases. This folder has been placed outside your primary web folder for security reasons so that visitors to your website do not get direct access to your databases.

Please note that for performance and reliability reasons, we strongly recommend the use of Microsoft SQL Server for the deployment of production-quality web sites/applications. Microsoft itself has stated the following - "Microsoft Access was designed as a single-user desktop database, and not for server use. When multiple, concurrent users make requests of a Microsoft Access database, unpredictable results may occur."

If the hosting package that you have purchased includes MSSQL Database(s) then you get 5 Database Users per Database that you have purchased. Using the Database Manager section in your control panel, you can add/delete MSSQL Databases, add multiple database users for a single database, change passwords etc.

Each database user can use Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer to connect to and manage the MSSQL databases.

FrontPage is a WYSIWYG HTML editor and web site administration tool from Microsoft. The FrontPage Manager option allows you to enable and disable support for FrontPage Server Extensions on your website. Enabling FrontPage Extensions would allow you to directly publish your website through FrontPage itself instead of requiring you to use a seperate FTP based client. Also, if you are using certain components provided by FrontPage, you would need the extension to be enabled for these components to function correctly.
