MS Access Database with FrontPage 2000

A

Ajith KUMAR

I have an employee database created using MS Access 2000.

I would like to create a simple web page which should pull
the information from the said database, so that all the
employees can see it in their browser.

I had gone through the FrontPage help. The articles that
are in the help, says that Click on Tools menu, select Web
Setings (in order to create a database connection) OR
click on Insert menu and select Database. Unfortnately,
these menus are not enabled but I can see them (unable to
select as it is in grey color). Is there anyone who can
help me on this issue?

The PC that I am using has the following ;
Operating system: Windows 2000 Profesional
Office: Office 2000 Premium

Is there any pre-requisite for creating such a page that I
have mentioned above. Thanks for your help.

Kind regards,

Ajith KUMAR

Open the local web in FP (File Menu | Open Web), then drag/drop the database
into this current open FP web, FP will prompt you to create a connection
name, and to allow the database to move into the fpdb, allow FP to do this.
Then you should be able to follow Help in using the FP Database components.
