Question

ASP form reads from access, can't write

I am a complete ASP noob. I use ColdFusion and ASP has proven to be a pain I wish I would have never touched. I need to add a simple contact form to the end of an ASP page to capture basic info.

When the page loads, all is well. In fact, the page is able to perform a query of the database and get some list options to populate the form. Once I complete the form and hit submit, it posts the form and generates an internal server error 500.

I built the form using the built in Dreamweaver actions. It is set up to be an ASP VB file, though I get errors with ASP JS. I think the server is configured right, since the page loads and performs the query. I could be wrong. The database is Access and I have the permissions set for IIS to have the ability to write to the database.

What do I need to look for?

Thanks in advance for any advice!!!
