just please look at this page.....
http://www.masalatalk.com/masalaboard/search.php
In this, if any match found for the keyword, then it would display a intermediate page which shows as follows
"Your search is in progress and you will be taken to the results in a moment. Thank you for your patience. "
and also
"Click here if you do not want to wait any longer
(or if your browser does not automatically forward you) "
I would also like to implement like this using ASP and SQL during database search....
could any one guide me how to do this....?
many thanks in advance

Do u mean to say that u want to use threading? like when database search is going on , the intermediate page is displayed?
Alternative could be
1. Get the record count depending on the keyword
2. if recordcount > 0 then display the wait message ( for this u will have to write wait loop in asp) otherwise display the other message

you can have your page load a partial page with an image or text in a <div> tag. Then when the page completes, make this invisible.
I don't have an example handy, but I used this once before. Search 4guysfromrolla.com. They had (I think) an article on this.

Creating vbs of asp is simple.
1. Remove <% and %> from the code.
2. Also if u have included the adovbs.inc file, remove include statement and declare all the variables in begining of ur code itself.
3. Also u dont need to write Server.Createobject instead u can write Createobject only.
3. Change the extension from asp to vbs.
4. Double click the file to run it. As the vbs file runs in background mode u will not have any display to check whether it has run or not. So try checking mails,whether u got or not.
Alternatively visit 4guysfromrolla.com..Very good site

Is it safe making vbs scripts... some servers would not allow running scripts for security reasons... so please cheeck and the server where the application is being ported/installed.
