Does anyone know any good resourses (code examples etc) for getting data from an MS SQL database and sticking the results up on a web page using ASP.

E.g. type in a number on a web page, search the DB and return the results in the browser?

I can do SQL and program in VB, its just the transition to asp that I need help with.

Cheers guys

The above sites are what I would also suggest, however one good bit of advice is to use ADO recordsets and not try to construct your own SQL and run that, it's neater and you end up writing more better code.
