Hi Group.

Hope you can help me again. I have a form which when submitted fires of a
message to everyone in my userdatabase. (so that they know there is a new
item on the website).

I would like to be more selective now and sent it only to users that meet
certain criteria depending on the form input. (The form submits to a
clientdatabase).

So, if the input form has a field: Type = "House" then I only want to send
it to users with a field: Requirement = "House" and this then fires off a
cdonts script to send the message.

Ok, so far? - so my question is, How do I make this connection between the
two databases? Appreciate your help in easy to understand steps as I still do
not fully grasp what I am doing! Anna.

You will need to hand code it to "save" the results of the 1st DB query (users="House") for use in the sendmail
- in a temp table or variables (like an ASP array)
Or nest (in a Do Loop) a second DB (users) open, find, send mail, close DB inside of each result of the 1st query (clients)

PS
You really shouldn't have 2 DB, but 1 DB w/ 2 tables in it (users & clients) linked by a common relationship identical field

Thank you stefan, it's a little tecnical for me, so perhaps you could spell
it out in simple fashion - I have tried to simplify matteras as your
suggestion so now have two tables in the one database both with the identical
'House' field. so I want to match when house in usertable matches house in
clienttable.

Thanks, anna.

What you are trying to do is beyond simple "wizard" steps
- you need to learn how to hand code ASP
Start here http://www.w3schools.com/asp/default.asp
