I am very good at vb programming in excel, but I am trying to use frontpage
now; and having a little trouble.

I am trying to create a ONE web page that is basicly a form.

When the page starts there will be one control, depending on how that
control is answerd it will then clear that control and bring up another
box(FRAME) of multiple contols for the user to complete, at the time the box
is complete; it will be cleared and another will come up with multiple
controls. This was very easily done with user forms in excel just turn off
and on frames and position them on the screen with their properties. I dont
even know where to get started with frontpage. The forms in front page do not
seem to have and properties to change. Please help me get started. I just
really need to see how to start one frame with a push button control in it,
and once pushed it clear and another frame and control appears. I shoul,d be
able to get the idea after that.

Youe first step should be to contact your host and ask
them what programming language(s) they support. The next
step would be to visit your favorite bookstore to pick up
a book that covers that programming language.

Study that book and try to write a solution that covers
your situation.

An alternate (if your host supports it) would be to
purchase VB.Net and programm your solution with that tool.

What you are suggesting is not easy in a web page. For the web,
forget VB - learn JavaScript and CSS for client side, and VBscript,
PHP, Perl etc.(whatever is required) for the server side processing.
Your application as stated will require extensive use of layers and
FP2003 behaviours - this nothing like you have done in Excel - it may
be much easier to use multiple pages for the form, using ASP or
ASP.NET (or whatever server side technology your host supports) to
move data from one page to the next.
