SUMMARY
=======

The FrontPage Internet Database Connector Wizard allows you to create an
Internet Database Connector (IDC) file even if you are not using a server that
supports this technology. Although the file is created correctly, it may not
function on some Web servers.

MORE INFORMATION
================

To use IDC files correctly, you need to publish them to one of the following Web
servers that support the IDC standard:

- Microsoft Internet Information Server
- Microsoft Peer Web Services for Windows NT 4.0
- Microsoft Personal Web Server for Windows 95

Additional query words: 97 IDC IIS
