    Posted: 21 September 2007 at 10:52pm
I have a stand alone laptop with MS-Access.  I have a small database and would like to write some ASP code.  How do I connect the ASP to the Access and use a web browser to activate the code?

Thanks.  One more question :what do you put in the address field of the web browser to activate the program?  How do you run the ASP in a browser?  I do not see that in the tutorial.

To be able to run/excute  ASP code, you would need to install IIS (Internet Information Services) web server, which does not come with XP Home Edition.

you could upgrade to windows xp pro

or you could look at apache, but you would also need to look at php instead of asp.

Ok, I'll do the upgrade.  One more question.  What do I enter in the address line of the web browser to run the program?
