Formatting the Output of the Database Results Wizard in Microsoft FrontPage

While FrontPage is a fabulous program for creating and managing websites, the real magic lies in the multitude of ways you can format the output of your Database. The most common questions on FrontPage related discussion forums usually center around formatting the final output that FrontPage generates.

For some arcane reason, FrontPage ignores all the hours you spent carefully designing your MS Access tables to make the fields display just right. Instead, it just takes your data and dumps it into an unformatted, uncongealed mass.

Your numbers are formatted incorrectly. Your memo fields seem to have lost their carriage returns. The list goes on and on. In this section, we'll tackle those challenges one by one, and beat your FrontPage web into submission.

At the same time, we'll show you new and unique ways to massage your date into a multitude of ways. Use bar charts for a visual presentation. Create tables that sort simply by clicking the column heading. Format your results into multiple columns.

And much more...All it takes is a little FrontPage Magic.


These tutorials are part of an upcoming training course called "FrontPage Magic - How To Create A Database Driven Website For Non-Programmers". Stay tuned for more details on this exciting new product.
