We have created a event report form on our intranet and are trying to get the form to save the results to an access database with no luck. I have tried to make the smallest of forms and submit it to a database and it keeps coming up with either the code fot he ASP, OR the no page error. Is this due to no ASP?

Wait, you created a form in FrontPage to connect to a back-end Access database, and you did not save the form as .ASP?
Well, that could be your problem. I used to write some internal html forms that used Access as a trouble reporting database for an intranet site. I saved all html pages with forms as .ASP, then, after building the ODBC connection on the web server to connect to the Access database that the form referenced, it all went smoothly.
So, try that.

No I did save it as ASP and it did not work. it either opened it up in the browser and brought up the code of the page or got the page error. I also tried it as regular HTML
