I am extremely new to ASP. I am trying very hard to run, I'm sure, very basic ASP code and link it to a database. Is there anybody out there that I could show my code to who may be able to help. I just seem to be going round in circles. Thanks in anticipation |

i think its best to start with access, as sql are harder to understand and most hosts dont support it or you have to pay twice as much for a small sql database.. but anyways.. the best way to help beginners is not to give them some code so they can paste it into their application.. its to easy.. let them work a bit on themselves.. at least if they want to become good programmers.. This is my 100th post!! just wanted to say that... |
