I created a forma and would like to process the info on that form using a piece of ASP code that is on my server.
If possible, how can I retrieve the info (request.form?).
If not possible, Is there another way to get this data and populate automatically a database?
Thanks for any hints.

When you create the form... specifically when you set the "SubmitForm" action, you assign the type of data you want posted to your URL (ASP Page).

With Acrobat 5.0 for example, your choices include:

FDF, HTML, XML, or the complete PDF document.

In your case, I would suggest setting it to HTML, and then just treating the incoming data is you would an HTML form. You'll get a request object just as if from an HTML form.
