linking excel to front page

[Gary Case]

I know how to link Excel to Word, such that when Excel is
updated, it ouatomatically updates the copy of it in Word,
but I can not find how to do this with Front Page 2000.

Does anyone know if this is possible, or if it is possible
in the latest release of Front Page and Excel?

Thanks

You'll be about 2000 times better of linking FrontPage to
Access, and then linking Access to Excel. However, if
your needs are limited (or you just prefer to learn this
the hard way) here's a link to get you started.

in the latest release of Front Page and Excel?

Jim:

The article (3b268948) could not be found. I'm very interested in this too
so I'd really appreciate the right link.

I just tried this link and it worked. Perhaps it'll be more obvious if
I add the line break in a different spot.

I you just want to search for the article nubmer, it's 268948.

But again, *don't do this*. Web pages work very well with databases
such as Access or SQL Server, but terribly with Excel.

There's a high probability that whatever time you spend trying to make
Excel work will be a complete waste. Instead, spend the time getting
up to speeed with databases
