The driving force behind Active Server technologies is data access. In order to develop a truly dynamic web site developers need to allow users to access data on demand. Luckily, with Microsoft's Active Server Pages, this is exceedingly easy to do. This article for ASP beginners details how to connect to a SQL Server 7.0 database using ActiveX Data Object (ADO) and Open Database Connectivity (ODBC).
DSN Connections
In my earlier article on Accessing the database from ASP I explained connecting to database via DSN in a step by step mannner. So there is no need to repeat that again, you can see it from there.
DSN stands for 'Data Source Name'. It is an easy way to assign useful and easily rememberable names to data sources which may not be limited to databases alone e.g Excel spread sheet etc.

Upon the first search two radio buttons will appear indicating a search (default) or a search within the current results. Searching within the current results will take the first search and add it to the new search and so on. Note the db only has 50 observations in it. For best results search on a letter and search for another letter within those results.
