You need to open FP on a server based web site (not a disc based web sit) that supports databases

Depends on the operating system:

Windows XP Home, Vista Home, Windows 7 Home - No

Windows XP Pro - Install IIS and FrontPage 2000 extensions from the Windows CD
Note that FP2000 extensions do not support all the features from FP2002 and later.

Windows Vista (Other versions) - Install IIS from the Vista CD, then FrontPage 2002 extensions from
http://www.iis.net/downloads/default.aspx?tabid=34&g=6&i=1630

Windows 7 (other versions) - Install IIS from the Windows CD, but there are no FrontPage extensions available, which makes it a non-starter for your purposes.
