You can't import anything into FrontPage. You CAN import files and folders
into a web site. Now, I may be accused of being picky here, but it is
important, when building a house, for example, to know the difference
between a hammer and a 2X4, for obvious reasons.

You miport an Access database into your web in the same wya that you import
any other file. Use File|Import... or drage the file from an Explorer window
(such as Windows Explorer or My Computer) into a web which is opened in
FrontPage. Once you import the file, FrontPage should automatically set up a
Connection to it.

Again, you don't upload files to Windows SharePoint Services, and more than
you can import a file into FrontPage. You can create WSS web sites, and they
can use a database. In FrontPage, with a WSS site opened, just import the
database file in the same way you'd import it into a regular web site.

In fact, other than the Connection creation which FrontPage can do for you,
it isn't really necessary to have the database inside a web site at all. An
Access database can reside anywhere on the machine. The Connection String
identifies the file location, as well as other Connection parameters.
