Hi,

I want a simple web page where users can enter their name and this is then fed back into a MS access DB - nothing too flash and preferably as simple as possible with preferably no usage of other third party software .

thanks !

...it's entirely possible, but you need a web host that will run the dB. You can't just put the .mdb file in the webspace and write to it direct.

WHOOPS wrong post, I'm sure I didn't do that LOL!

Do this at your own risk LOL!

Go to a run command and type "regedit" and hit enter then navigate down the tree to the following key: -

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Run

This will contain the programs configured to run at startup

Far to much to give all the code in a post!!

1st - As fatman says youy need webspace that will support this.
2nd - You need your database on your webspace.
3rd - Your choice of language, I use ASP.
4th - Create your input form.
5th - Create a function to handle the submission of your form, this function needs to:
o Create DB connection object
o Open DB connection
o Write data
o Close DB connection
6th - Display a message that all is done.


If you need some code snippets then please feel free to mail me: richard@riverweb.co.uk
