asp?

[Coach]

hi
not sure if i am in the correct newsgroup, sure someone will place me in the
right direction if not.

I ahve a little vb6 knowlege and i will probbly look at .net for this and
needed some help

basically i have a network windows 2000 in work.

i want to build a page, a master, that connects to 10 other computers.

each of these computers needs to access the page, or their own page and fill
in some text boxes.

the master then neeeds to see this information.

possibly the master then needs to alter a few boxes and then inturn this
will be shown on the single page they see.

question
what is best to build this?
is this simple?
any advice appreciated

regards
Coach

Maybe your english is bad or your technical ability is at beginner level
which is why it makes no sense. So bare with me,

I 'think' when you say master you are referring to the server hosting the
asp pages?
i also 'think' you want a page displayed that people can connect to on your
work LAN and enter some info in text boxes on?

To be honest is that is right and you don't know if it is simple or not then
i seriously advise you learn to programme before doing anything else. What
you are asking would be on the first chapter of any decent asp book in the
basic tutorials part.

That all aside to answer your question. Yes it is very simple, you can't get
more simple.
Build it in asp.net and in your case vb.net is the way to go as it is easier
to get to grips with than c# (i am a c# man but since you have vb knowledge
you say, i reckon stick with it).

Also pages don't connect to computers, the computers (clients) send requests
to the servers (you refer to as master) and then the server processes that
request and posts back the html which the client receives and the clients
browser interprets and shows on the screen.

You may wanna look over your basic network concepts too. Again a good
beginners book on asp.net will gve you a run down.

Hope that helps?

Hi point was, no one can make sense out of it, and he was right...
Laughing at him for making a typo won't get you much help... And you
saying things like "i have a network windows 2000 in work" is hardly better.

It really isn't clear who/what you expect to fill textboxes or how. (No
idea what you mean by a master that connects to other computers). Then a
computer should fill textboxes? (instead of sending a message, inserting
values in a DB or such). Computers don't communicate by filling
textboxes you know, and you don't say how the computers would get the
data either. Very unclear, it's hard to tell what you're even trying to
do, you want people on 10 computers entering data that will end up on a
single web page? (That's my best guess, but I could be way off...)

Heh, Heh...

I always use upper case I when speaking of my self and use an upper
case character to begin the first word of sentences. Some English
speakers don't "wanna" do that.
