View records from an access database

[Mark]

I have a simple intranet site designed with frontpage 2003 running on an iis
5.1 web server with frontpage server extensions installed on it.

I have an access database and would like to be able to view records from it
on the intranet. My knowledge of access is very basic, is there an easy way
of doing this, in the form of a wizard that would help me.

Thanx in advance
Mark

thanx for that andrew

i've tried the database results wizard and it looks great.

i put together a simple results page by following the instructions, when i
uploaded it to my iis server and then tried to view through internet explorer
i get a message
"Database Results Wizard Error
The operation failed. If this continues, please contact your server
administrator."

Could this be a configuration issue on iis?

the access database is saved in its own folder, and the results page with it.

thanx
mark

Is the database in the _fpdb folder? The results page should not be in that
folder. Put it in its own folder or move it to the root of your web.

that's "fpdb" (no underscore).
