The advantage of IIS3 is that active server pages can drive data from a database (product descriptions/specs/charts/prices/images...) to create dynamic pages. You change the database and the pages are updated - voila! Now look at Lotus/Domino - you can create an Lotus has a authoring system so that novice/non-tech content providers can fill in these 'templates' - and voila - it shows up on the web. Question - I dont know SQL server at all. Is it possible to easily create a similar "authoring environment" where the content providers enter their content in a friendly front-end which then becomes part of the database that drives IIS3? Know what I mean?.... otherwise the content providers/html editors would say - I'd rather cut and paste and add stuff in Front Page directly in the html file rather than this database stuff that I know nothing about. All thoughts are very welcome. Thanks Jay [email protected] [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

You can use ASP to enter data as well as read it. I use Access to put data in the database. PJDM | |||||
