Create a Data Base

[Bruce Castro]

I have FP 2002. When trying to insert a data base, the
data base tab is greyed and inaccessable.
When choosing form properties, the send to data base
option is greyed out and inaccessable.

This is true whether I'm trying to create the date base
on my computer or within the server.

Is my program corupted or am I just an idiot who is
missing something simple.

Thanks
Bruce

First, make sure you're opening a FrontPage-based Web
before trying to insert the database. That is, make sure
you're choosing Open Web from the File menu, and then
specifying the file folder or URL where your site begins.

Then, if your menu options are still dimmed, choose Page
Options from the Tools menu, click the Compatibility tab,
set all the drop-down lists to Custom, and select all the
check boxes.
