I recently took a tutorial on creating a guestbook with ASP and it used Microsoft Access to create a database to be used with the recordset. This limits the text to 255 characters and also I had problems uploading these files. Is there a way to create a database or use a recordset without Microsoft Access? if anyone knows of any tutorials or can help me out it would be appreciated.

thanks

When you mention the 255 character limit are you refering to a field within your database?

If so, change the Data Type of the field from Text to Memo. Momo fields have no character restriction.
