Thanks, different interface lets see if it works.

The reason being is that i want to use the basic mail function in the
form,right click on form and send file through to email address and so forth
,
its just that if i try on this pc i get the error that my extensions are not
loaded but will work check this out

###
FrontPage Run-Time Component Page
You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web
server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.

This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish
this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.
####

thats the message. I want it to work locally, please help with solution Tom,
Thanks

That text comes from the file _derived/nortbots.htm.

nortbots.htm only appears in four cases:

1)  You are testing on a disc-based website, including a FrontPage
disc-based web that is being browsed through a web-server.

2)  You are testing on a website that does not have server extensions
installed or running.

3)  The site (or form page) was FTPed from a disc-based web, or
published using a FTP address for the destination, or published to a
file system destination including a network share or UNC address (like
\\machinename\path\webname).  Publish must be to a URL of the form
http://example.com

4)  There is a bug associated with FrontPage98 which causes this
problem.

A server based web is one you open using an http:// address, such as
http://www.example.com

A disc based web is one you open in FrontPage using a file system
location, such as e:\mywebs\webname.
This is still a disc based web even if it is used by the web server as
the source of the finished website.

You can build webs in FrontPage using either system, but for testing
(or running the web) you must be using a server based web if the site
includes any FrontPage run time components, such as hit counter,
guestbook, discussion web, custom linkbars, forms (that use the
extensions as a form handler).
Also, any web that uses run-time components must either be
built/edited on a server (using the http:// address to open the web in
FrontPage) or published to the server using http publishing, not FTP.

You will have to configure the extensions for SMTP since you have a
form in the web that sends data through email.

attention else where so will get back to later if you dont mind, as i will
try this at home.

strFullName = Request.Form("txtName")
strTelephoneNo = Request.Form("txtContactTelephone")
strFax= Request.Form("txtFax")

strMessage = Request.Form("txtMessage")

Set Mail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")

Ron,
I can't seem to post a new question, so I'll try a reply here.
- Win2003 Server w/ FP2003 and 2002 Extensions installed
- Email set up through administration appears to be set.. (correctly ??)
- 'thisweb' is set up as a virtualy web under default web
- I do get the component error message in FP2003
I'm also getting this problem, and I can't get it to go away.  I've always
opened as 'disc based', pointing to c:\web\thisweb.  Your response indicates
that this is an incorrect way if I want to test my forms.  For kicks I tried
to open http://machinename/thisweb, but it failed as not found.
Am I just simply missing something obvious or is it something else?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
-Adam
