FP-2003 Database wizard missing

[Pierre B]

My setup:
- Windows XP, SP2
- MS-Office 2003 Pro
- MS-FrontPage 2003
- All Microsoft Service packs and Updates applied.

I'm trying to put a MS-Access Product Database on a new WebpPage:
- Did a Frontpage search: " Use access Database"
First result: "Using the Database Interface Wizard" (great that's
what I need - click on it)
- In the FP Help window I get:
some bla bla bla then
Start the Database Interface Wizard
1 - On the File menu, click New.
2 - On the New task pane, under New Web site, click More Web site templates.
3 - Double-click Database Interface Wizard.
Did what I was told...

MY PROBLEM:
There is no "Database Interface Wizard" in the Web Site templates window; I
only have
One page Website, Corporate presence Wizard, Empty.., Import Web...
Personal... and Project Web Site.

What I tried :
- Closed FP and restarted it, same (and did it countless times)
- Rebooted and went back to FP... same
- Reinstalled FP... same
- Reinstalled Office (Access 2003) and then FP... same
- Aplied all Service packs and updates.... same

Then I rolled up my sleeves and looked under the hood (Just looked... didn't
change anything).
Found the files required on the FP CD and they are all present in my Office
Installation: vti* .inf. .exe and .wiz files, the WebS11 directory, etc....
So from what I can see, nothing is missing

Could there be a setting in Frontpage that disables the Database interface ?
I looked everywhere and didn't find anything.

Anybody experienced anything like that or any ideas where to look ?

Thanks in advance,
Pierre

Open FrontPage.
Tools->Page Options - Authoring Tab
Check the boxes:
"Browse Time Web Components"
"Author time Web components"
"Active Server Pages"

Thanks a lot Ron, it works.

The solution came in les than 30 minutes; I spent 3 days scratching my head
on this.

Now the fun begins.
