Is it possible to connect to an Access Database using Frontpage 2003 on a web
site that is on a Sharepoint server? If so, please explain how.

Thanks in advance.

File Import the Access DB into the FP web site & FP should create a DB connection

Ok, I got that part to work...the next problem is when I create a form and go
to the properties of that form to "send results to database"....the "send
results to database" option is greyed out.

Make sure you have a web / site open in FP and that you have FP configured to use ASP / VBScript and
that the server is IIS and not Apache.

It is IIS and ASP/VBScript are enabled. I created a temporary site on a web
server that does not have Sharepoint Services, and I was able to create a
database connection and to use the database results function with no problem
at all. Is there something that I have to do differently since I'm using
Sharepoint Services?

Yes, in that case you should either:

o Create a Windows Sharepoint Services list, and use the update form that
WSS creates automatically, or

o Write a custom WSS "Web Part" in Visual Studio.NET.

o Run the app on a virtual server not running WSS.
