Beginning ASP Databases

So you've decided that ASP-ADO is the solution for your situation, and you've learned how to set it up. Now you're ready to begin using ASP-ADO to access and manipulate data within web pages. This chapter discusses the simplest situation – the simple task of reading the data. Although we are only reading the data, we can still use it in several ways. Not only can we write it to the page; we can also use the data in variables, expressions and as the arguments for other functions.

Beginning ASP Databases explains the theory and practice of using ADO with ASP by presenting numerous examples, exercises, lists of common errors and quizzes. The emphasis is on the authors' proven teaching techniques and the presentation of the most commonly used features of ADO in ASP. If you read each chapter and do the exercises you will have a portfolio of several dozen data- intensive web pages of increasing complexity – a fine return on your investment.
