Form data not saving to Access database

G

Guest

I can't get the data from my form to show up in my Access database. I am
publishing to an Intranet file system, and when I publish I get a message
that the my ASP form page may not work because the server I am publishing to
does not support ASP. But the file system does support ASP, and other ASP
pages work fine.

I think I am connecting to the database in Frontpage okay, becuase when I
got into Form Properties, Options, SaveFields I am able to connect each field
and I don't get any errors. When I test the form on the Intranet file system
and hit the submit button I get the confirmation screen and a list of the
data I have entered, but when I go to the database nothing has been added.

What am I missing? How do I convince Frontpage that my file system supports
ASP?

A file system does not support ASP, but a web server running on the file
system does.
You should publish to the web server using a destination location similar
to http://servername , not the file system.

You need to publishing to a http location and then access the page via http. This requires the site
to be hosted on Windows IIS web server with ASP enabled.
