Insert | Database | Results (grayed out)
In a new page, I want to insert a Database connection... I tried to select from the menu option >> INSERT | DATABASE | RESULTS << but the RESULTS option is grayed out (not seletable).
What's missing?

Unless I am mistaken in order to insert a database onto a page, the page needs to be an ASP page, a regular HTML page will cause the issue listed above.

Hmh, not sure... I just opened an existing ASP page and I see the same problem... "Results" is grayed out.

thanks... I just realize that I haven't installed the IIS on this new machine. Could this be a reason?
I'll look into your suggestion tomorrow morning when back at work.

certainly - sounds like your web is running in disk-based mode rather than thru a web server
asp pages must run on a web server - hence the asp (active SERVER pages)
and you have to use asp to produce database results
