Hi,
That depends on where in the store3 you wish it to appear. If it's everywhere then put it in header.asp or possibly footer.asp. If it's on just some pages you could either modify the code for those pages or, a better approach IMHO is to either :-
- Create a second copy of header.asp and modify the code for those pages to refer to it instead of the standard header.asp
- Add some conditional code in the header.asp to determine whether the banner is displayed.

I missed what is probably a crucial question - what do you want to appear in the banner on the right?

What would you want it to contain?
- Static "banners"
- Best Sellers
- Cross selling
etc.

If it's static it's fairly straight forward as it's part of your site design, but updating it is more time consuming & technical if it's dynamic content then creating it in the first place is more difficult, but maintenance is much easier on a day to day basis.

On the page you refer to - http://www.medion.de - http://www.medion.de - the links in the right banner have been created in flash. You could create the same effect using CSS.

If you want this to appear on the home page only I would suggest creating a static page with links to the products in the online shop.

If you want the links to appear on every page then you need to follow the guide given by Hamish and include it in the header.asp file.
