This form takes all the hard work out of matching up form field names with your database fields when adding new records. It automatically creates a DSN-Less connection and all the ADO commands necessary to add records to an Access database without the need for a Connection Object. As it stands it can accommodate up to 20 fields, but is easily extendable. <%@language=vbscript%>
