<% Dim conn %>

<% MyPath=Server.MapPath("database.mdb") %>

<% Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") %>

<% conn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
"DBQ=" & MyPath %>

<% srSQL1 = "SELECT * FROM Publications WHERE series = '1 SERIES'" %>
<% Set rsSeries1 = conn.Execute(srSQL1) %>

<table width="707" border="0">
<tr>
<td class="header" colspan="5">
<div align="center"><font face="Tahoma, Arial, Verdana" size="2" color="#333333"><b>ADMINISTRATION
(1 SERIES)</b></font></div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<% Do While Not rsSeries1.EOF %>
<td width="123" align="top"><font face="Tahoma, Arial, Verdana" size="1" color="#333333">
<% Response.Write rsSeries1("pubNum")%>
</font></td>
<td width="341" align="top"><font face="Tahoma, Arial, Verdana" size="1" color="#333333">
<% Response.Write rsSeries1("title")%>
</font> </td>
<td width="136"><font face="Tahoma, Arial, Verdana" size="1" color="#333333">
<% Response.Write rsSeries1("date")%>
</font></td>
<td width="89"><font face="Tahoma, Arial, Verdana" size="1" color="#333333">
<% Response.Write rsSeries1("prop")%>
</font></td>
</tr>
<% rsSeries1.MoveNext %>
<% Loop %>
</table>


that will connect to your database, and grab the records
pubNum
title
date
prop

through a recordset called rsSeries1 and place them in a table
this simply connects to your database


<% Dim conn %>

<% MyPath=Server.MapPath("database.mdb") %>

<% Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") %>

<% conn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
"DBQ=" & MyPath %>


this is saying, pull the rocords until there arent any more to pull


<% Do While Not rsSeries1.EOF %>


this displays the record


<% Response.Write rsSeries1("pubNum")%>


move to the next record and keep looping

<% rsSeries1.MoveNext %>
<% Loop %>



now you stated you already know how to get the records into flash, so i am not going to elaborate, if you need help, repost
