Hi Thomas -
You kindly responded to my post and here are my replies:
Which version of FP are you using? I'm using FP 2003.
Which version of Windows are you running? I'm running
Windows XP.
In order view the results from the database the pages must
be named with a .asp extension and you
must view them from your browser via
http://localhost/pagename.asp. This requires that you have
a
web server installed locally. Do you have one installed
and are you developing your web against the
web server by opening your site via http://localhost? I
don't understand a lot of this because I am VERY new to
all of it and just kind of flying by the seat of my pants,
but I am hosting the website on Winsave, and they tell me
that connecting Access to it is very easy, although I have
not been able to do it...mostly due to me not knowing the
steps involved I'm sure...
Also you will need a Windows IIS web host to use Access as
the database. I don't know what Windows IIS is...can you
explain?
Thank you so much for your help.
