*******************************************
NOTE: All the tables in this sample use an Autoincrement field as the primary ke
y. If the primary key in your tables is not Autoincrement type or there is not p
rimary key in your tables, you should rewrite above codes. In my opinion, use a
Autoincrement field as primary key is a good habit.

System required:
To run this sample, the follows should be installed on your PC:
Windows 98/Me/XP/2000£¬MSXML 4.0£¬MS Access 2000£¬IE 5.5 or above.

en GO.
4. By a little changing, such as change the path, authorize the user, you can up
load this sample source to your virtual hosting to administer your own database.
There are several sample databases and two source files in the downloadable ZIP
file.
The sample databases will automatically unzip to a "database" path under the wor
king path, for example:

Two source files are:
¡¡A service page codes runs on the server: server.asp
