Where do we no table found people go

Question

Hi,
I have looked at several members messages containing the same
problem I have
I am using ASP.Net
I am using GoDaddy for hosting
I have successful connection to database -but NO TABLES
I have tried the update, followed step by step instruction on
installation script removal and re-uploading scripts via another
method.
I have a database, I need that database, I am unable to
create another database using Dreamweaver.(for some reason
dreamweaver wants your database table already there.) I have dived
deep into the tutorial that came with Dreamweaver and ever where I
go they insist on connecting to that database as opposed to
creating it. If the information is there I haven't uncovered it
yet..
I'm ready to perhaps take an alternative route can I turn my
ASp.Net table into -maybe a ...Coldfussion and what changes do I
need in order to make the transfermation? At least point me in the
direction of the correct tutorial in Dreamweaver. Thanks.

Answer 1

Dreamweaaver is a html editing package (and .asp, php, cf,
etc.) It cannot
create a database. You need to fully understand data files
and their
management. SQL, My SQL, Access (a form of SQL) etc. and how
they are
created. Your tables are contained in these files and your
data is
contained in the tables. You can have many more than one
table in a single
data file. The file must be stored in an appropriate secure
location on
your server and your server must be set up to handle data
base files. I'm
not sure GoDaddy can do that, but I've also never used
GoDaddy.
From Dreamweaver you can then write active pages that will
access that data
base and actually update it and edit it based on your input,
or your users
input.
