Where do I upload my Access database files?

You should see a directory named "_database" under your web root. The _database directory is configured with enhanced security which does not allow direct download from a web browser. For security reasons, all MS Access database files (*.mdb) should be uploaded to this directory.

Do not place any other files (e.g., html, asp, etc.) in this folder.

If you do not have the _database directory within your webroot, you can create it yourself via FTP and the secure permissions will be automatically applied.
