Rereading your post I think I may have misunderstood part of it. Most of the above portion is still correct but I may have a minor change.
If they only want the asp page to display the table names, field names, metadata, etc Then you will still need the username/password and you will still need to know at least the database name, but you can write SQL statements that will query for the tablenames and fieldnames dynamically. If this is the case please repost, if they do actually want the data from the db, not just the metadata, then doing all of this dynamically is a waste of time, resources, and future resources (as the pages will load incredibly slowly, etc) and they need to supply you with the relevant information from above.
