hi

I have been trying to figure out how to, with one click, simultaneously send the contents of the form to the access DB, and then to the email. by themselves they both work great.

i have tried to combine the two routines, but of course it doesnt work:

here is the form mail code:

<%

Dim landing_page, host_url
Dim fso, outfile, filename, dirname, myFolder
Dim req_method, key, value
Dim bErr, errStr, bEmpty
On Error resume next
bErr = false
bEmpty = true
errStr = ""
Set fso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
host_url = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_HOST")
req_method = Request.ServerVariables("REQUEST_METHOD")
dtNow = Now()
filename = Server.MapPath("\ssfm")
dirname = filename
filename = filename & "\gdform_" & DatePart("M", dtNow) & DatePart("D", dtNow) & DatePart("YYYY", dtNow) & DatePart("N", dtNow) & DatePart("S", dtNow)

Function FormatVariableLine(byval var_name, byVal var_value)
Dim tmpStr
tmpStr = tmpStr & "<GDFORM_VARIABLE NAME=" & var_name & " START>" & vbCRLF
tmpStr = tmpStr & var_value & vbCRLF
tmpStr = tmpStr & "<GDFORM_VARIABLE NAME=" & var_name & " END>"
FormatVariableLine = tmpStr
end function

Sub OutputLine(byVal line)
outfile.WriteLine(line)
end sub

if err.number = 0 then
Set outfile = fso.CreateTextFile(filename, true, false)
if err.number <> 0 then
bErr = true
errStr = "Error creating file! Directory may not be writable or may not exist.<br>Unable to process request."
else
if(req_method = "GET") then
for each Item in request.QueryString
if item <> "" then
bEmpty = false
key = item
value = Request.QueryString(item)
if(lcase(key) = "redirect") then
landing_page = value
else
line = FormatVariableLine(key, value)
Call OutputLine(line)
end if
end if
next
elseif (req_method = "POST") then
for each Item in request.form
if item <> "" then
bEmpty = false
key = item
value = Request.form(item)
if(lcase(key) = "redirect") then
landing_page = value
else
line = FormatVariableLine(key, value)
Call OutputLine(line)
end if
end if
next
end if
outfile.close
end if
if(bEmpty = true) AND errStr = "" then
bErr = true
errStr = errStr & "<br>No variables sent to form! Unable to process request."
end if
if(bErr = false) then
if (landing_page <> "") then
response.Redirect " & host_url & "/" & landing_page
else
response.Redirect " & host_url
end if
else
Response.Write errStr
end if
set fso = nothing
else
Response.Write " An Error Occurred creating mail message. Unable to process form request at this time."
end if
%>

here is the 'add record' code

<%
Dim objRS, intObjectID, objConn
Dim adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable
adOpenDynamic = 2
adLockOptimistic = 3
adCmdTable = 2


Set objConn = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection")
Set objRS = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Recordset")
strConnect = "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("/access_db/prospect.mdb")&";" &_
"Persist Security Info = False"

objConn.Open(strConnect)
objRS.open "plist", objConn, 2, 3, 2


objRS.AddNew
objRS ("FirstName") = Request.Form("FirstName")
objRS ("LastName") = Request.Form("LastName")
objRS ("EmailAddress") = Request.Form("EmailAddress")
objRS ("DAreacode") = Request.Form("DAreacode")

objRS.Update
objRS.Close
objConn.Close
Set objRS = Nothing
Set objConn = Nothing
Response. Redirect "/dis.asp"
%>

what i am trying to figure out is to have the mail sent AND the DB updated at the same time.

thanks
