Don't append forms results

I want to allow section heads in my organization to speak
to their specific customers immediately by posting their
own 'bulletin' information without having to publish
through myself and Front Page.

I have figured out how to do this using a form and include
page. (if there's a better way, please tell me.)

The problem is Front Page appends the new message to the
old ones and displays all of them.

I want it to replace the previous message and display only
the most recent entry. How?

I use FP2000 with extensions and Win2KPro. Unfortuately,
my FP help is not installed correctly and is useless. A
manual? What's that?
 
FrontPage doesn;t have this capability per se.

One possiblility ius to save the information in a
database, and then configure the DataBase Results Wizard
to display only the most recent entry.

Another is to write something in ASP ore ASP.NET code.

I was afraid you'd say that. I was hoping to avoid a
database, but I'll give it the old college try. I would
have to ask the IT dept. to write ASP and this would be
way down on the priority list.

Thank you for the prompt reply.
