IIS/MSSQL

I have an SQL 2000 server set up that runs perfectly, and an IIS set up that runs perfectly but I
can not get the webpage to read data from the dbase. Is there a connection that I have to make or a
program I have to load? The page is a .asp page, and when I run the page that should connect
I do not get any errors in the dbase at all, so I can only imagine that it is not even seeing an attempt
at a connection. Any help is appreciated.This page shows how to add a connection to an aspx page, and display the information:

There's also a link to a tutorial which explains how it to do it.
