| That might work, but it's not very manageable that way, atleast not at my
| skill level. This is what I'm doing with the form.........I have it on my
| sisters wedding website, where people can fill out the form and RSVP
online.
| I get the form results opened in excel periodically and then I can total
the
| columns and see how many of each meal and things like that. If it goes to
| notepad, it's not manageable like that. I don't know what to do, this is
| driving me crazy....I just need to get those form results in a manageable,
| readable form, and be able to say, take someone out of the form results if
| they decide they're not coming to the wedding. And I need to do that on
the
| server so I have all the info in one place with all the new RSVP's coming
in.
| Thanks for all your responses, I hope someone can think of another
solution.
| Thanks.
