Database - ASP

[Guest]

Using FP 2000.

OK...First of all, I'm a database idiot.

I've created a few pages on my company's website (with permission) with
plans to get them on their own URL eventually.

I've created an Excel file with team names and scores. Id like this Excel
file to be accessible to update team names, scores, etc. and then update on
the web page automatically.

I went through the Database Results Wizard and thought i had it done
correctly.
Frontpage tod me to save this page as an ASP file, which I did. The page
will not open in IE (v6). It asks me if I want to save it or open it. When I
select "Open", it opens in FrontPage.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks Very Much.

Requirements for ASP:

1. Web site hosted on IIS, with ASP installed
2. Web Page must have a .asp extension
3. HTTP Request to server for web page (e.g.
http://localhost/myweb/page.asp)

Thanks Kevin,

I'll have to check with Verio, they host our site.

The page does have an .asp extension.

I appreciate the info.

You need to do this wth an Access database. or, you need to publish the files to
the server running ASP.

Sounds like the server you're publishing to does not have ASP or is not a Windows
2000 (and up) server running IIS.
