I ma unable to open the Database option in Tools. I have checked the Active X Controls box and the Frontpage server box. How do I insert a Database?

Do you have a web open?
Have you enable IIS as the web server?
Have you enabled ASP/VBScript?

Active X doesn't apply, as FP doesn't use Active X for anything.

I have the subweb open on the web and I have enabled both VBS script and Java script. Do I need IIS to be the web server?

Yes, IIS must be set as the Web Server.

Yes, you need IIS and ASP enabled and FP server extensions.

Insert menu > Database > results.
you don't directly insert or embedd the database file you have to use asp script
to read the database and display the data in a web/asp page.

try www.frontpagewiz.com for a tutorial using the FP database features.
