I think my webserver isn't configed to serve asp pages....
are there any small aps I could run on the webserving machine, and just really simply tell it where the MS access db's are and where asp content will be (the "WWW" folder's) and have it run in hiding, alongside our existing web server software?

<%
Response.Write "this is a asp page"
%>

save those three lines in a file called test.asp (you can use notepad) if when you call the page (test.asp) and you see the three lines, then it does not support asp, if you just see "this is a asp page" then it supports asp
