Connecting to password protected access database

I'm connecting via dns

<%
Dim connect

connect = "aplicaciones"
pwd = "turbogt"

%>

This gives me an incorrect password error.. also I need the code applied so that if there is an error opening the database .. the line of code with the password is not displayed in the browser

I've set password on my access databases, so I need to somehow put the password in the asp code to get in..

many thanks!
