Updating records in databaseI am using Frontpage 2002 on a Win 2003 server. I used the Database Results
Wizard to create my pages using ASP. Everything is working fine, I just don't know if it's possible to do what I'm needing. I have a search page that brings up results that contain a link so that individual records can be viewed. There is an edit button on that page to allow the user to make changes to that record. The issue is, while they need to view all the infomation in the record, I only want them to be able to edit 2 fields. I tried elimating the other fields from this edit page but once the information was entered all data for that record was moved into the 2 editable fields. If anyone know of a way to allow all fields to be viewed but only some to be edited, I would sure appreciate your help. Question, please, if you don't mind?
I was just wondering how you are setup to let users edit their own records. I take it that they have to login, correct? And if so, do you have to assign the username and passwords? Thanks.

Only
users with permission can access the site. We are running Microsoft Active Diretory so they don't actually have to login. It knows by their pc login. Then I used the Database Interface Wizard to set up all my pages. I included the Submission Page, Results Form and Database Editor. Once I completed the editor, I went to the results.asp page and made the ID column into a hyperlink. That puts a hyperlink on each record when it comes up in the search. I made the hyperlink go to editadd.asp?ID=<%FP_FieldURL(fp_rs,"ID")%> The editadd.asp page was created with the wizard. That brings up a page that allows them to edit all fields. Hence comes my problem. Since I didn't want my users to edit all the fields, I tried omitting the ones I didn't want them to edit from this editadd page. That messed up the records that were changed in the database as it moved all the data in that record into the fields they were allowed to edit. The other fields were left blank. I hope this answers your question.

I read your message as I am about to input security into my FP 2003 website. I also need to be able to allow users to change data in the Access files. I used DWR to list records but don't know what to do to edit them. Thanks -- Show quoteHide quoteBruce Dill "slickbet" wrote: > I am using Frontpage 2002 on a Win 2003 server.
