continuing questions about frontpage and Access databases

[lshippee]

I have imported a database (experimental) into my web site and used the database results wizard to generate the results page with search bar, but not getting the desired end result -- when I enter a value in the search bar and click submit query, it seems to be working but then returns the error -- this page can not be viewed.<br><br>I am wondering if I am missing a piece in step 3 of the wizard, using &quot;more options&quot;, I've added criteria for a search form.&nbsp;&nbsp;A dialogue box &quot;Add Criteria&quot; comes up and I'm wondering what information is supposed to go in the text box for value -- by default, whatever is selected as the field name also shows up as the value -- then that information shows up in code on the finished page (not what I want)<br><br>In general, my understanding about using this wizard is that you import your database and during that process the database connection is created by Frontpage -- the wizard then requests information for generating the results and/or search page (an active server page) according to the database connection that's been created.&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there additional programming or scripting required?<br><br>I am just beginning to use this and have several projects that I could use this for if I can get it to work -- thanks in advance for help

I'm still trying to figure out how to make databases work with web sites, too.&nbsp;&nbsp;There appears to be very little information available--as yet.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, you might find it helpful to go to Microsoft's web site and <A HREF="

http://www.microsoft.com.&nbsp</A>;&nbsp;They

have a document called Microsoft Office 2000 Web Components White Paper.&nbsp;&nbsp;It has a section on page 7 about why you may not be able to run the web components.<br><br>Some quick highlights:<br><br>1) You're using Netscape<br>2) You're using an older version of IE<br>3) You don't have the web components installed on your machine<br><br>Hopefully, this will help.<br> <p>Linda Adams<br><a href=mailto:Garridon@aol.com>Garridon@aol.com</a><br><a href=

Linda,<br>Thanks for responding.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've been out to the microsoft site even as we speak.&nbsp;&nbsp;I did a search of the knowledge base and came up with a couple of articles I'm still investigating.&nbsp;&nbsp;There is a download available, ASP Web Wizard 2000, that looks like it may be some help.<br><br>I am publishing to a remote web server that runs frontpage extensions -- I need to check if it is also &quot;asp ready&quot; -- apparently not to be taken for granted.<br><br>The articles I've looked at say I need to be running MS Personal Web Server to use the web wizard -- I am running it, but I do not use it to publish my site as I publish directly to my remote host.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm now wondering if that could be an issue.<br><br>Thanks for the input.<br><br>Leslie Shippee
