Advice please - Web pages and databases

[Ian(not Ian)]

Chaps etc.
Could someone give me an overview on how to display the contents of an access database on a web page (using Frontpage if poss)?

Thanks.

Ctrl C, Ctrl V ?

Not everyone will have Access so it may need to be a screen grab or similar, if it's like "real time" (constantly updated) then you could link to the Access file but like I say people would need Access or a viewer to view it.

You need to be using ASP for Front Page to do it, IIRC. You get your database file, shove it in the web directories somewhere and then (this is the easiest way to do it, you can customise it later)...

'Insert->Database->Results'
'Use a new database connection', click create
'Add' and 'Browse' to your Access DB.

Click OK and the follow the 'Next' prompts to insert your data as a table into the web page.

that's what I thought
