Thx all! Some of these tips put me on the right track to research what I need to know. Now I have a lot of deep digging to do to make a final decision about which way I will go.

lol,.... sigh, No I know all 2 well about making it on my own, no free lunch, life is hard, yatta yatta. I would just like an exe. for CSS SQL etc.. that gives me something to tweak without having to know the code. Cookie cutter is not what I want by any means. Theres a ton of those out there. I don't know how else to explain what I'm in search of. Ummmmmmmmmmmm,.......... I want to be able to change things [and still be original] like in Microsoft Front Page 2003 [GRAPHICAL INTERFACE] but in CSS SQL. I don't have time for the fun of it. lol Life is 2 busy. I just want to get it all done, with all the creative unique ideas I have, and run it, and make some $$. I can't belive there isn't anything out there like MS FP 2003 yet that does that . That really bites.

Now that I am researching whats out there in dating service script SQL etc. etc.. I'm wondering if there is anything out there with templates [but highly customizable] that is similar to MS FrontPage 2003 POINT AND CLICK / Customize etc. where I don't have to know a lot of CSS code. Sure it would be great to know all the CSS & HTML code. But @ my age, with the many things going on with me, and my family, and the need for more income fast. I just don't have the time to go that deep. I have a complicated life. If it gets any more complicated, my head will explode! lol

Very cool, thx guys!!! I love getting great info to remedy my headaches. This is great! I appreciate any info that would get me on my way a.s.a.p.. Thx all!

Hey Serpentine, Yeah I totally know what you mean, and agree. But, in my complicated crazy busy life, I need to keep the work load down as much as possible. So that's basically why I bought MS FP. Nothing worth while is easy. But I have to cut off the fat as much as possible to get from point A to point Z and get a few great sites up and running a.s.a.p. for income. I have some great ideas and now seek the knowledge of how to make them a reality.

lol Thx Bill, I appreciatie it. I dabbled a tad years ago around 1998 with MS Access, but nothing worth mentioning. So I am now on a new knowledge quest to learn all I can about SQL data base creation. And also to possibly use some templates from the above links to modify to my needs. So do you guys think I am asking for trouble using only the EVIL Ms Front Page 2003 in Windows XP home to make a business site from? Thx a lot all!!

Hey Nick, Thx 4 the info. I was hoping this could all be done on the Evil Windows XP, and MS front page etc.. Without havign to learn Linux or anything heavy like that. I can handle basic HTML, and scripting looks like something I can grasp. About the EDIT: Yeah Bill just PMed me letting me know the EDIT function is on a timer. So it's not possible for me to edit it. However, he is helping me do that since I PMed him an alternative post text. NM it's done. I thought it was clear that I was a presales poster newb here. lol

Thx Serpentine, That's exactly my next question. From what I have just found a few mns ago on google. I looks like what I'm looking for is a MySQL database tutorial that's really top notch for newbs like me showing me exactly how to get started making a database of this type. I've been looking on eBay, but any links to helpful places for this subject would be fantastic. I have soooo much to learn but I want this so badly. So I'm going for it full tilt. Sry 4 the rant above, when you want to get going so badly like me, it's hard to not get stressed when you get looped around and around the system and end up back @ the drawing board. I wish the chat support people would have told me that this wasn't there dept. of expertise, and that I should have asked you guys. Oh well, I know better now. lol All help will be greatly appreciated!

Hi Bill H, No i'm a [new possible customer] presales guy. No account yet. I thought I posted this in the place [presales questions]? I'm trying to see if this is the place for me to Host with. Thx 4 the response though. Hopefully I can find help here, and a Host home here @ TCH.

Hi all, 1st post here. Hope you guys can help. I'm extremely gung-ho on putting up my 1st pay services content site. I have a life times worth of computer background. And yet I'm sort of a newb to some of this, but I'm learning rapidly. *** I have been taking tutorials to use Front Page 2003 for the last few months. I now know my way around that fairly well through experimenting. I learn fast once I get in there. Although I don't claim to be an expert yet, though. lol I have many questions and can't seem to find them searching this forum without bugging you guys. So my main concern right now is. How do I set it up so I can have a profile search function of my paying members on my site? I.E. What I want to do is basically much like a Dating service. Where full access Paying [and free *Limited access*] customers sign in with there user name and password to access the member profile database through a search interface and contact each other via an internal email system on the site. Not to be confused with a forum. So I would need a search function with various ways for customers to search the members data base. I.E. By user name, age, distance, location, race, hobbies, pictures only, etc. etc. etc.. I'm not sure if this is done within MySQL via the Cpanel once I sign up to TCH. Or if I should do it somehow with MS Access & MS Front Page 2003? I am going nuts here. You guys really seem to help people out on this forum. So I figured I would try it out. Plz make me a believer. I thirst 4 the knowledge to make something great that will yield a nice income for me and my family! Thx a lot in advance. Fingers crossed!
