using parameters to change folders

[Meemers]

I have a real estate website based on an access database. In the results page
(.asp) I want to be able to "include" text files from different folders,
where the folder names correspond to the 'mls' field for each property. I've
tried without success using the "include" webbot but that meant that text
had to be saved as a webpage - not too bad though. The text pages are named
-00.htm. I've managed this with image files, by changing the format of the
parameter for the image in the properties window for the image, but can't get
anything to work for text or pages. (I did try inserting inline frames, which
worked but is not satisfactory as the text length varies.)
Can anyone help please - this is holding me up so badly!
Hopeful Thanks
Meemers

This response looks like I need to learn asp programming - which I currently
don't know.
I was hoping for some way to use the reults returned in the FrontPage
Database Results area so that the contents of the field "mls" could be used
as the path from which to display the 00.htm file. I need the path to the
00.htm file to be thus:
/Properties/"mls"/00.htm --- where "mls" is the contents of the mls field.
How do I get that to happen?
