I now need to look at more sophisticated pages which allow updating, user authentication, sorting, formulae between fields and the rest. In other words, much more of an application than simple queries.

My question is, from your experience will I be able to do this by extending what I've done up to now, i.e. reading these forums and other Web resources, copying code snippets and generally achieving the desired results without understanding all the code?

I've kinda been assuming I need to learn ASP and VBScript "properly" for this project. I'm also thinking we need to host on a new Win2K server with IIS5 instead of my current setup.

Am I going beyond the "hack the FP DRW" realms here, or can I continue in the same way with some guarantee of success?

Any opinions appreciated. I can cope with hacking the gray code and have done some programming but not VBScript or ASP.

Thanks

Mark

Is it better to write an ASP page from scratch or still use the DRW as a starting point?
