| sadly there was no replies. I have found numerous other people with the

| people are using Frontpage to make forms to input data into a MySQL db.
|
| If I create a form for a table that is JUST numbers, and type just
| numbers into the form the db + form has no issues. The ID field is even
| automatically numbered. Yet any non-numerical data for some reason is
| just not accepted. I do not know code, so I am at a great dis-advantege.
