Hi all -

I would like to use a members area where my clients can log in and see their previous orders.

I can create a sub-web with FP but how can I give my clients unique user names and passwords so that they will be directed to their files or folders?

I currently don't use ASP but do you think I need a SQL or Access database to accomplish this? Any suggestiosn helpful. Thanks.

You'll need some kind of server side language and a database would be preferable, all though not essential if you can use php.

Access, MS SQL, or MySQL would work fine depending on the traffic the site is expected to get. Access will work for small time sites but if the site is going to be massivly database driven, then you'll definetly want to use either MySQL or MS SQL.

And as NightFire said, you'll need to use a server-side language.
