I have a fairly ambitious client who would like to offload the management of intranet content to other individuals in the organization. For the project to be successful, the data management must be as painless as possible. Accordingly, the ideal interface for data input is Microsoft Word, as most users are extremely comfortable working with it.
I would like to be able to create word templates/forms which are dynamically populated with data from an database, then downloaded to the client PC. Once the data is updated, I would like the user to upload their files back to the server, which will in turn update its database and maintain an audit-trail of all changes.
Can this be done? I'm assuming that if I install Office on the server, it would be feasible using the office API, but I would love to be able to do this without office on the server.

I have a site that enables users to search for property details and access a specific property brochure. They can search by price and other property features etc.
This is all working fine, I now need to be able to return usesr to a specific page within the result set after they have viewed a specific property. I dont want to rely on the back button, I would like to provide a link which returns them to the result page they came from. The users are not known to the site.
What is the most efficient way of handling this, I have had a look a several options but I'm realy not sure what it the most efficient.
The VIRTUALSITE name is really the virtual directory created under IIS. I clone my website multiple times, to cater for different people. So, each person gets a different VIRTUALSITE name. This gets messy when I need to update the websites. I can't do a diff/merge because the files of each site had a "search & replace" applied to them to change the VIRTUALSITE name to the corresponding person.

Has anyone experienced this problem? Can someone give me some tips/solution on how to resolve this?
I have just started using ASP, I am normaly using PHP but I thought ASP might be a good road to go down. I am having a few problems, I am trying to limit the number of records I take out the database but I keep getting errors.
I had made a form name 'dform.html' which asks idno, name and phone from the user and after the user clicks on button "save data" sdata.asp is executed. sdata.asp is written to save the values entered for idno,name and phone in dform.html into table "myfriends" in the mydata.mdb (access database). but when i am clicking on save data button i am getting error saying
"Error Type:
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E09) Cannot update. Database or object is read-only. /SDATA.ASP, line 9"
can please anyone tell me why i am getting this error.
I work with ASP for several weeks now and i really like it! But until now i have just used it in connection with my localhost. I made connections to a SQL Database and to an ACESS Database with using the ODBC Tool from WIndows!!
Now i want to publish my website but i don't know how to handle the connection string kind of thing. My MySQL-Database is on a different server than the website and i need a connection string where i can type in the server, a password and a username and it should then connect.

With regardst the above many-to-many relationship:
Is there any advantage in creating seperate access databases for:
- Customer - Products
....Rather than keeping them as three tables in one database.
The reason I ask is that I have found that if I am using a ftp approach to overwriting or updating the remote database there are sometimes problems with synchronizing data .....This seems to be a better solution?
does any one know a simple free database driven website tutorial that i could learn? i need it for when someone searches a name ionformation on that name comes up along with photographs realating to them.
I have built several websites before but none are database driven so is there any dummy proof versions?
I have a Access DB with two tables (Users and tblpersons). Users are stored in table Users and their records in tblpersons. They are able to login, Enter, Search, Update their data.
I want users to be able to Enter and update only their data not other users data.
Example:User_Id 1 when logged in, is able to enter data for any user(1,2,3......) and able to modify their data.
I can make a simple database file and name it database.mdb, all I need to do is name a single field email and save it. But I dont know how to make it so that my page will become active and the emails submitted will be saved either to the mdb file or a text file, im not sure what goes on there.
They are on Windows 2000 IIS 5.0 and currently have an older version of their job database using Access hosted on a Brinkster server. The new server that they are on, when I contacted the host, they advised me against creating any new applications using Access, as the server is not meant for multi-users. So, I am thinking that they need to get their host to upgrade to a SQL database and have the job database developed using that. My question to this forum is: What do you think is the best combination for improvement here, SQL or MySQL or what, considering that their site is using asp and hosted on Win2000 IIS 5.0? Also, any recommendations on scripts that might be already available that could be customised to their site?
What we have is our own (in house) Windows 2000 Server which runs MS SQL for our data storage and we have writen our own VB6.0 Application which runs of the SQL DB to manange our stock, ordering, price's etc etc. Also we have our own Website with a Web Hosting Company which is also a Windows 2000 Server but can only Run access databases. What we what to do is somehow have the Access database and the SQL database sync together to have some of the same data in both database's. But I don't know where to start.
I have the following code to execute a SQL query.Code:
SQL = "INSERT INTO teams (`teama`, `teamb`, `pot`, `winner`, `finished`, `start`) VALUES ('" & teama & "', '" & teamb & "', 0, '', False, '" & gdate & "')" teamrs.Open SQL, conn all works fine. I just want to know what result it gives.because once i add it, the form submits, and its a blank page. I want it so it does this Code:
if sql = worked redirect else error end if so how can i make sure the query was executed successfully.
This is probably a stupid question (I'm good at those)... I would like to enable a user to be able to browse to a picture on their local machine and upload that picture to a remote directory where it can then be displayed along with it's other pertinent data. I thought it might be a good idea to use Front Page's "file upload" feature which includes a "browse" button and prompts me for a storing location - but I can't get it to work and am not even sure if that's its intended purpose. So my question is two-part, what should my insert or update page look like regarding an upload process, and then how would I link to or display that picture?

I have a form that is inserting data to an access database i have it working, but when ever a user enters a name with a special character eg Tom O'Conor i get an error due to the ' character, is there anyway of over coming this problem.
i have this code that is supposed to help me out in some databse retrieval issue. however i am not aware of the dsn-less code and stuff: <% var rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset"); rs.Open("select * from states","DSN=IST_SQL;UID=....;pwd=....");
var n=0; while (!rs.EOF) { ... } rs.Close(); %>
i think the following is also to be included in the above code, but i am not sure of the whole connection thing.

I made a script that'll add a lot of data to an access database. Something went wrong during the execution of it, and i was stuck with the mdb file and the idb file. I've tried deleting both, or either, but neither will delete. I've also tried using sql DELETE and DROP, but neither will do anythying. Any way i can delete these files?
I made a database in MS Access and two ASP pages, one with a drop-down box with some options in it and the other one which then shows more data from the database about the chosen option. All of this worked perfectly on my pc but when I uploaded all of this to the server all I get on my website is an empty drop-down box. It seems that my page can't read the data from the database. I'm sure that the path to the database is correct. What could be the reason?
I have copied a MS SQL database to my local machine and am testing it with ASP pages, locally, on IIS. I have a db connect page that keeps the current connections for the live database.My question is, as the local db is named 'local,' is there another name I need to give it and thus call from the connection page?Also, when copying a db, are the permissions (username and pass) copied over with it?
