New to ASP.net

I am new to ASP period. But it seems like a great tool.<br>I want to create a webpage that will do the following. Present certain users(that need password protected) with data. Save the selections they make from the data and do two basic things. Display those selections at a later time in the day. And keep track of their selections on a weekly, monthly, etc. basis. I also would like to minimize the time it will take me to load the data for their selections to be made.<br><br>One of many things that I am curious to. The selections made as I said will be saved. And I will keep a record daily of the changes. I want to make that part of the project available for public view. Should I do this sort of manipulation at my workstation instead of at the server? Reason I ask is I am wondering if all the accessing of aspx files will cause an undue strain. <br>I hope I made some sort of sense with this.<br>Thanks.
