Hi,

I am trying to implement in Sharepoint WSS what I did using DreamWeaver and asp, that is :

a user interface that reads the external database values and allows the user to update 4 of it's fields as well as run SQL services.

I've got it doing almost everything except the following write back to the database.

I can connect up to the external database source using Data Source Catalog and Data View Web parts to display a master view and detail view.  And after much research, have learned that these are ONLY for reading and displaying data.

Can I use Infopath to update the database?  Or, better yet can I import my asp code from DreamWeaver for the updating of the database part? 

Is there truly no way to update an external database in Sharepoint using default web parts? Perhaps, because is wasn't designed for that?

Thanks,

Wy
