You can do that if you want. You would then use the
Saved Fields of the Options For Saving Results To Database
dialog box to match up the form fields with database fields.
Alternatively, you can have FrontPage create the database
for you. In this scenario, you create the form first, taking
care to give each form field a meaningful name that:
o Isn't a reserved word in Access (i.e. don't use "date".)
o Doesn't contain any spaces.
o Doesn't contain any special characters.
Next:
1. Save the form.
2. Right-click the form and choose Form Properties.
3. Select Send To Database.
4. Click Options.
5. Click the Create Database button.
