Summary: Great starting point...
Comment: This is a great starting point for anyone looking to take their database to the web. Of course, if you have some prior knowledge of ASP and VBscript, it makes it much easier. Although I have many years of VB and SQL Server experience, I still read this in its entirety and found some great info for taking some of the DB's at my job to our corporate intranet and across the internet.
This book takes you step by step (as the title implies) from designing your database (predominantly in Access although he explains how to connect to other databases) to getting it accessible through the web. The examples are great and they tend to build on each other. By the end of the book you should have a good foundation to design any type of data driven website you can imagine and password authenticate it as well.
If you are starting out and you are using Microsoft software, then this is a literal cookbook for web database success. Kudos to Jim Buyens for putting out an informative book that reads quickly.

Summary: A Cookbook with Good Insight
Comment: This was money well spent! I am a college student who has had one database class and one object-oriented programming class (C++). I also have a copy of this author's "Running FrontPage 2000" book. Armed with those, I am very quickly on my way to having an impressive first-ever database-driven Web site--and I'm enjoying the learning process.
Mr. Buyens does a good job of introducing and overviewing database design/construction and VBScript considering these are part of the cookbook, but not the topic of it.
I wanted to build a Microsoft-driven database-driven Web site, and Mr. Buyens has provided the book I needed, in a format that is working very well for me: a cookbook with good insight (into the technologies involved).
The only other book I considered before buying this one was "Beginning ASP Databases." I sincerely doubt that it's as step-by-step as this book, and that's a feature I really wanted.

Summary: Excellent Resource for Beginners
Comment: People, it does not break down any easier than this! This book explains all the basics in clear, concise, and easy to follow examples. Be warned, you will not want to stop learning after reading this book. Probably the most impressive facet of this book is that it uses Notepad (or any text editor) for all examples of ASP despite its ties to Microsoft. It uses Access for database examples as it is the most readily available. This book does a great job demystifying the "data-driven" web page. If you are beginner or a web author with some fuzzy notions of data-driven web pages (as I was), get this book. 6-stars!!!
