I am using FrontPage2002 and have created a form through FrontPage. After I
created the form I had FrontPage create and write to a Access Database. I am
having an issue that I need to pass a field from the form to another page to
appear in the body of an email. I can not get any variable to pass to
another page from this page. It appears that FrontPage is controlling the
page and will not do anything bu write to the database. Any suggestions.

Thanks
Evan

If you inobtrusively add a statement like:

<%Session("product") = Request("product")%>

to your Save Results page (i.e. right after the <body>
tag) that should save the "product" form field in
the "product" session variable.

Another ASP page in the same application could then
retrieve the "product" data via Session("product"). For
example:

<textarea>Thank you for taking an interest in
<%=Session("product")%>.</textarea>
