Unique Filenames

data cruncher

I have successfully created a form in Frontpage that loads data into my
Access database (which is utilized by a database_interface folder which I
used a wizaard to create.)Things look like they are working well; HOWEVER, I
am now getting an error message in FrontPage (not in my browser) that says
"You specified identical destination filenames for some of the files you are
trying to copy. Make sure all destination files have unique names and try
again."

To my knowledge, I have only established one relationsship for this form to
populate. There is only one form on the page. How can there be more than one
destination file designated? Where should I look for this?

Thanks.

Do not open the database from within FP, export to your desktop, then open in Access, then when
finish drag/drop back into your open web in the fpdb folder.

How do I "Export" the file to my desktop? I cannot find that command.
Thanks.

I have published the file to my desktop. OK. But where are the tables? They
do not exist, but the data does! Where is the data being stored? I also
looked at the database from FrontPage, and the tables do not exist there,
either. Where is the data? It does show up in my forms and reports in Access.

If FP2002 / FP2003 select the file, then File Menu | Export

What do you mean you publish the file to your desktop, you have to export it.

Thank you. Yes, I *finally* see the Export feature (2002). Did that not exist
in the older versions? (I've been using FrontPage since the first version -
whatever that was.) It now works, and my tables are there (they still don't
show up in the FrontPage database, but that's OK, as long as I know I should
export to the desktop and work from there.)

Thanks again.
