The Database Interface Wizard in Microsoft FrontPage® 2002 generates everything you need to add database functionality to your web site including a database, the forms, and Web pages required. With a Web front-end to your data, specific users can edit or delete records from the database through a web page that's created with this wizard. And you can allow visitors to add new records and view existing ones as well as filter the data to more quickly find what they are looking for.

To add database functionality to your Web site using FrontPage 2002, do the following:

1. From the File menu, select New then Page or Web.
2. From the Task Pane, select Web Site Template.
3. Click on Database Interface Wizard.
4. Check the Add to current Web box and click OK, then let the wizard walk you through database and page setup.

Tip: To view the data once you set up the connection and complete the steps in the Database Interface Wizard, your web site must be hosted or published on a web server configured with:

• Active Server Pages (ASP)
• ActiveX Data Objects (ADO)
• Microsoft FrontPage® 2000 Server Extensions (or later) or SharePoint™ Team Services from Microsoft

Ask your Internet service provider (ISP) or web server administrator whether your web server is configured with these options.
