Form does not post to DB, DB in wrong web?

[Michaelgs]

I can't find a way to get my form to post the data to the access DB.
I used a connectivity utility add-in and when I ran the utility from my
subweb it would show me that i have not connectivity. When I ran the utility
from my rootweb the utility made me create a global.asa in the root web and
once I had that it shows that i do have connectivity.
I am not a programmer so I followed all the steps in the MSKB about creating
password restricted pages. I created a new subweb and than installed all
files into the subweb, includin my DB.
I am wondering that maybe the DB has to be placed in the root web?
and if so, do I just point the form Wizard to the DB in the Root?
I have used F1 and MSKB but I really would appreciate some human assist.
This is not a sensitive web site, so if anyone wants to look at it I can
give you the login and password.
Thank you,

What happen when you imported the database into your open FP subweb?

it told me to place it into a folder called fpdb, the instructions on the KB
however had told me to place the DB into the _private folder.
Do I have to have a subweb, being that I am only trying to password protect
a certain number of pages?

Let FP place the database in the fpdb folder and yes you need to have a subweb, if you want FP to
protect the folder.

I have tried and tried. I finally ended up removing the subweb and placed
everything into my root directory protecting only the actual pages with
<% @language="vbscript" %>
<!--#include virtual="_private/logon.inc"-->
and now it all works. I still would have preferred to have a seperate subweb
but I just could not get the DB to accept the data.
I do really appreciate all the help which I received from you and your
colleges. In the KB it told me to place the DB into the _Private folder and
that did work.
If you have time to go to

you can see how it blocks you from seeing the page.
I used this MS KB which one of the FPMVP gave to me:

Again thank you for all your help.
