Ok i'm doing a class project and i have an access database set up with a series of links but i want to enable people on the page to add their own links to the access database, i know this is far easier and more practical to do with mysql sadly this isn't an option. Does anyone have any ideas it would be most appreciated.

Try using a type of 'CMS'.

But use flatfiles. (txt files).
Here's some usefull links:

I'm pretty sure access has a feature that generates something that will allow a user to insert data from a html page... if not frontpage as it is a MS application should be able to generate a form to insert information into an access db file (as much as I hate suggesting frontpage it would be the least complicated solution).

I have seen ASP been able to do this quite easily. As easy as PHP does with flat files.

As I do not work with ASP much, I'm not sure.



Here's what i found in a Google Search
