Since ASP is especially good at reading and writing to databases, let's
start with a very simple database and scripts that we'll eventually build
into a guestbook. For now, start with a database with Name, City, State, and
Country. I've built my database with MS Access, but you can use any
ODBC-compliant database you'd like. First, follow the link below to view the
ASP page, then click on "view code" to see the code behind the page. If
you'd like, you can <A HREF = 'http://www.web-savant.com/users/kathi/asp/samples/database/sample.zip'>download</a> the MS Access database and scripts. (Zip
format, 18K)
