SUMMARY
Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
If you have a Web server on which you want to create Active Server Pages
(ASP) files, the Web server must have installed support for Active
Server Pages.
To view Active Server Pages (ASP) files created in Microsoft Access 97 on
Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft NT Workstation 4.0, you can install Microsoft Personal Web Server 4.0.
NOTE: On a Microsoft Windows NT Server running Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), you must have version 3.0 or later in order to view ASP files.
You can install these new versions from the Microsoft Windows NT Option
Pack located on the Internet Information Server (IIS) home page on the
Internet. For details on how to download the Microsoft Windows NT Option
Pack, see the "More Information" section later in this article.
NOTE: You do not have to download Microsoft Personal Web Server 4.0 for Windows 98. You can also install it from the following location on the Microsoft Windows 98 CD:
\addons\pws\setup.exe
