What do I do now?

If your host is on a local network you can use Microsoft's Enterprise Manager to manage your tables. If the DB is already on the server and the Admin has set up an DSN, it should be accesable / visible using the Tools menu under Web Options:Database. If the SQL Server and the IIS server are 2 different servers, then the Admins MUST set up a DSN from the IIS server (AFAIK anyways...). Can you explain more? You stated what tools you have; can you tell us what you've tried? Do you have the web setup yet? Have you tried using the DWR to see if anything is configured yet? Have you checked any of the tutorials here? ??? _____________________________ Don't take you're eye off your final destination. ASP Checkbox Function Tutorial. (in reply to Wes)

I checked tutorials but -- or I just dodn't understand - how to get going. There is a separate server for SQL and I was given the address and username and password. I don't know what DWR is. I can find the Northwind db when I edit my site with FP and it is on my site in a folder fbdb - is it supposed to be there or on the SQL server. The northwind db is in access. Do I need to construct everything in access because I though SQL was different. I need something to study. Any suggestion? Sorry for being so newby (in reply to rdouglass)

For a frontpage connection, thats tools > web settings > database Will you use Frontpage to display the asp page or will you code your own database pages? _____________________________ If you arent part of the solution, then there is good money to be made prolonging the problem ��k� Database / DRW help Check out the Tutorials for Frontpage Databases Forum FAQ' s Developers Edition Spooky Login User Registration and Management tool Personalized Frontpage Hosting (in reply to Wes)

To access the SQL database, you may also need Enterprise Manager http://www.microsoft.com/sql/evaluation/trial/default.asp Just install the client tools, not the server, on your PC. Again, a bit of a learning curve, but check to see what your host also recommends. _____________________________ If you arent part of the solution, then there is good money to be made prolonging the problem ��k� Database / DRW help Check out the Tutorials for Frontpage Databases Forum FAQ' s Developers Edition Spooky Login User Registration and Management tool Personalized Frontpage Hosting (in reply to Wes)
