Form Problems

I posted a form to my website and members can click on it, complete it and
get a confirmation page that their answers were sent. However, I don't get
the answers. I am trying to set it up so that the answers go into a
database. I saved the webpage as .asp and I went into form properties,
cliicked send to database and under options chose create a database. The
program creates a database which can be opened and has all the right headings
but the results aren't going there. Why is my webpage not connecting with my
database?

Did you publish it to a Windows Server based host that supports ASP and Access ?

I have this same issue! Forms on my Windows 2003 Server (w/ FrontPage
extensions installed) will -not- save records into the database. Everything
in your email applies to my situation as well. I hope that this issue can be
resolved for us soon as my users are getting frustrated! :-o

Failure to write to the DB (if you can read from it) is usually related to a permissions issue on the server
- check your DB folder permissions

If the DB folder (created by FrontPage) is a subfolder within its parent, it
should assume security permissions for the parent folder. Am I incorrect in
this? Parent folder, for example, has all permissions needed for users within
the local group to perform -all- tasks within that folder.

Except of course to save results to the mdb file... :-(
