First of all you cannot do this with just Dreamweaver (unless its Ultradev) to my knowledge. You will have to use ASP or some other language.
Webmonkey have a very good tutorial on the subject at: http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/backend/databases/tutorials/tutorial3.html

Well, AlexMac, sure You can! UltraDev offers DB Connecitons, and some simple ASP functions.

However, Robert, I suggest You pick up a copy of SAMS's ASP in 24 hours. Its a VERY good book, and if You are a beginner, it will get You comfortable with ASP in just a few days.

ASP is not hard to learn, and You should really learn to code it. Using Dreamweaver will only limit Your ASP capabilities.

Hey I did say "unless its Ultradev..." !

I use Dreamweaver 3 and havent used Dreamweaver 4. I assumed Dreamweaver 4 and Ultradev were seperate products -am I wrong?

I would definatly reccommend as well learning ASP in order to understand what Ultradev is doing. Its quite straightforward. I would also recommend the SAMS book - its the book I learnt from and is an excellent. The site http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/ is also a good source of information about ASP.
