You could create a recordset to query your membership table. The SQL would
be something like: SELECT * FROM members. You could then use a repeat region
to display the data. You could apply a "go to detail page" server behavior
so that when you select a member you will go to a page where you can update
the selected member's information.

I'm assuming you don't know what server model you will be using. If you will
be using MS Access as the database, then ASP will be a good choice (ASP.NET
would be good too, but the learning curve will be more steep).

You can find "recordset", "repeat region", and "go to detail page" on the
menu of the Server Behaviors panel.

Here's a tutorial to get started with (if you use ASP):

Sure, MS Access will do. So will any other ODBC-compliant database (or even
text files).

Pick a server model (i.e. ASP) and work through the tutorials/help included
with DMX. Post here when you get stuck.
