About this title

Synopsis

Microsoft created Active Server Pages (ASP) to sew together a group of technologies for creating modern web sites, which can intelligently interact with the user at the front end and with servers and datastores at the back end. Among these technologies is ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), which allows easy, powerful and robust control of technologies that access datastores. This book explains the theory and practice of using ADO with ASP by presenting numerous examples, exercises, lists of common errors and quizzes. The emphasis is on the authors' proven teaching techniques and the presentation of the most commonly used features of ADO in ASP. If you read each chapter and do the exercises you will have a portfolio of several dozen data-intensive web pages of increasing complexity a fine return on your investment.

About the Author

John Kauffman is a research scientist turned freelance consultant - dividing his time evenly between teaching, writing and programming, primarily in the areas of Visual Basic, Word macros, Access and Access Programming, and ASP.

Kevin Spencer started programming in C in the early '90's before moving on to Microsoft Visual FoxPro and Access. As Internet Database Connectivity technologies began to emerge from Microsoft he recognised the potential and learned them aswell. This programming background led to the creation of "Site Design by TAKempis," a company which specializes in Internet Database application programming with ASP/ADO. Kevin was made an MVP in 1997 and now combines his work commitments with authorial duties including articles about Microsoft FrontPage and ASP/ADO for several online magazines, including Wrox's ASP Today.
