What i am looking to do is build a website in frontpage and be able to view specific information from an access database. I know it can be done but can it be done like this....

I Work for a contractor for cox communications and im building a "inside lan nework" website to access files, spreadsheets and general info locally. On a specific page of the website is a Teech list. what i want to do is have each individual tech name on the list link to the database and have it reflect what equipment was issued to the tech for that day. I dont want each tech name to bring up the entire database just that tech specific info in another window. The database is not on any kind of server it sits on a win98 machine within the network and is built in office97. Im using officeXP to build the website ( frontpage ). I thought there wre some issues with different version of office and access DB sharing but im not sure.

Dont know if ive been very clear here or not if more info is needed i will do my best to provide it

"All" you have to do is do a form for a query that filters out the data for a given techs name. The form needs to run when access opens. You can do this without resorting to HTML you can have a link pointing to the database - it will open and run when clicked on
