Hi Carla,

I am a bit confused, but I can be a bit slow :), your form doesn't need to
change, all you now have to do is post this form to another page (asp) and
then get that code to populate your database, and maybe display a thank you
message. I haven't used ASP for a while as I now work with .Net so I can't
comment on specifics, searching Google should give you the info you need
(but I have placed a link below). Just a couple of points, and someone may
correct me here (please do) but within your fieldsets it may be an idea to
introduce sub fieldsets to distinguish between "Before first session" and
"at this time" as they are both logical groups with in the fieldset. Also
are any of the fields mandatory, if so have you thought about validation?

Here is an ASP link, which may help for the writing to a database

Greetings:

I created an accessible form but now I need the entered data to go into an
Access database. I want to use ASP to do this. Does anyone have a good model
or sample code for this?



The form resides at
