    You can use any text editor to create ASP files, including Notepad.
    TextPad is worth a look. You can even download a copy of Visual Web
    Developer 2005 Express Edition from Microsoft - which is primarily
    geared up for DotNet, but can be used as a classic ASP editor. It just
    needs a little tweak so that it recognises ASP files, but that's easy
    to do. It's free (or at least it will be up until November), and it
    has intellisence built in. Pretty good for the price :-)

    If you have a copy of Microsoft Office Professional, you can use Access
    as the database to start with. It's probably the easiest to use.
    Otherwise you can download MySQL free, or even better, SQL Server 2005
    Express Edition - again free from Microsoft.

        The only other thing you will need is a web server to run your pages
        on. If you have XP Pro, you get IIS free. You need to make sure it is
        installed.
