Linking form results to a database

[Guest]

Having recently upgraded to to FP2003 I have added some extras to our
website,however the requirement to place a survey form linking results to a
database is not available since link to database is dimmed,how can this
problem be cleared.website www.arborfield.org.uk

The site must be hosted on a Windows IIS Web server and support ASP or ASP.net and Access or MS SQL
Server to use the FP database components.

Make sure you have a site open (File > open > site). Some (if not all)
features are disabled (greyed-out) if you don't have the site open.

Thomas, Using Frontpage 2003 I'm trying to setup a username and password
type authentication for a section on my website using a backend access
database that has all the records for validation. My problem is my hosting
provider does not support ASP pages. So is there anyother option for me?
Thanks, - Rob

You will have to work with whatever scripting language and database your host supports.

So is there a good reason not to switch to a host who does? There are plenty of
them in the ballpark of $10 to $15 per month.

If the Insert | Database command is grayed out, it might be because you have
not imported a database into your web and created a database connection:
