Pulling from Database

[groh]

ok, Im a newbie but...

I have an Access DB with products set up in different categories. On my index
page, I want to pull the names of the categories for my main links down the
left side of the page. I know how to do the master-details page, but how can I
have the links down the side? Do I need different recordsets to filter out for
each link? Sorry if I sound confused...I am!

Thanks!

You need a recordset that would pull in the names of the categories for the
page labels and the value of the categoryID for the values. Then just
create a link where the menu goes .. bind it to the URL in the link box (a
href="category.asp?CategoryID=1" for the first one) and use a repeat region
and select ALL to show the other categories as menu items.
