could anyone help me?
can u also suggest any online asp tutorials that are trustworty???

I would be glad to help if you can provide an example of the code?

Here is a link you will want to keep W3Schools ASP Introduction

It sounds like you may need to install the OLEDB provider for SQL Server. There isn't an SQL Server version 2003 that I'm aware of, so I'll assume that's the Windows version and guess you're running SQL Server 2005? Make sure that's correct before installing the following:

Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - Feature Pack for SQL Server 2005 Nov 2005

If you scroll down you'll see some files SQLServer2005_ASOLEDB9*.msi. Choose the right one for your platform and see if that works.
