I think I do. You have to use IIS 3 ofr greater*, and then put the file
somewhere on the web server (eg, c:\inetpub\wwwroot\whatever\something.asp).
You then load your asp into the browser with
http://yourmachine/whatever/something.asp and any output is passed to the
browser. To print something, use
<%=somefunction%>
or
Response.Write(somefunction)
eg:
<HTML>
<BODY>
<%
dim oObj
oObj = server.createobject("myobject")
%>
<B> <%=oObj.somethingthatreturnssomething%> </B>
<%
set oObj = nothing
%>
</BODY>
</HTML>
hope that helps???? Drop me a line off the list if you want more help.

(* you could use Chilli ASP, but Delphi will not generate binaries for
anything other than wintel x86, so you can't use it on Unix anyway)
