Change script from MSAccess to SQL access.

I'm using this script I found on the web. After some tweaking here and there, it works great. I'd like to change it to pull data from a SQL source instead of Access. Anyone know how to do this, give me some pointers?

Here is the script
*****************************************************************************************************************

<%@. LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %>
<% Option Explicit %>
<%
Dim DATA_PATH, Conn, DataRecords, email, user, pass, sendmail
'Maps to database. Change to your database path.
DATA_PATH=Server.Mappath("membersdb.mdb")
' Create and intiate data connection
Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Conn.ConnectionTimeout = 15
Conn.CommandTimeout = 30
Conn.Open "DBQ=" & DATA_PATH & ";Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DriverId=25;MaxBufferSize=8192;Threads=20;", "admin", "password"
Set DataRecords = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
email=request.form("email")
'The magic query to look for registered members in the database
DataRecords.Open "SELECT * FROM MEMBERS WHERE email = '" & email & "'", Conn, 0, 1
%>
<%
'checks if email address exists in the database before sending a message.
if DataRecords.EOF then
%>
We could not find <%=email%> in our database.
<% Else %>
<%
'sets variables
email = request.form("email")
'chooses username and password from database that correspond to submitted email address.
user = DataRecords.Fields("usernames")
pass = DataRecords.Fields("password")
Set sendmail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
'put the webmaster address here
sendmail.From = "Someone@.somewhere.com"
'The mail is sent to the address entered in the previous page.
sendmail.To = email
'Enter the subject of your mail here
sendmail.Subject = "Membership Login Information"
'This is the content of thr message.
sendmail.Body = "Per your request your account login information is: " & vbCrlf & vbCrlf _
& "Username=" & user & vbCrlf _
& "Password=" & pass & vbCrlf
'this sets mail priority.... 0=low 1=normal 2=high
'sendmail.Importance = 3 commented out causes a error for a call or procedure (line 41)
sendmail.Send
%>
We just sent your login information to <%=email%>.
You should receive it shortly.
<%
' Close Data Access Objects and free connection variables
Conn.Close
Set DataRecords = Nothing
Set Conn = Nothing
Set sendmail = Nothing
%><%end if%>

***************************************************************************************************************
And here's my SQL connection stuff
Private Sub Class_Initialize()
ConnectionString = "Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=ABC;Data Source=xx.xx.xx.xx"
User = "usr"
Password = "pswrd"
Set Converter = New clsConverter
Converter.DateFormat = Array("yyyy", "-", "mm", "-", "dd", " ", "HH", ":", "nn", ":", "ss")
Converter.BooleanFormat = Array(1, 0, Empty)
Set objConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Database = "MSSQLServer"
Set Errors = New clsErrors
End Sub
****************************************************************************************************************

sure would appreciate some help!

You can use a different driver in the connection string. Connectionstrings can be found here: www.connectionstrings.com

As Jens suggested you should be able to simply replace

Conn.Open "DBQ=" & DATA_PATH & ";Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DriverId=25;MaxBufferSize=8192;Threads=20;", "admin", "password"

with

Conn.Open "Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=ABC;Data Source=xx.xx.xx.xx;Password=<your pwd here>"

Please be careful about storing the password into the script itself, it is not secure.
