emailing form data

[Monica]

in previous versions of ASP I was able to use the following code:
Set varName= Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") but apparently this
is not supported in ASP.net and I don't understand how to use (at least, it's
not working the way I expected it to.)
Set varName = CreateObject("CDO.Message")

I need visitors to register for a class via a form and have the information
emailed to a company employee for verification. I don't want to use
'mailto:' for obvious reasons.

thanks,
Monica

Hi Monica,

ASP.Net is about as much like ASP as a Boeing 747 is to a paper airplane.
You have 2 basic choices here:

1. Continue to use ASP. It will be supported for a long, long time.
2. Learn ASP.Net. This is a good idea if you're a decent programmer (not
just a script-writer). If not, you will become one in the process, but it
will take a long, long time.

CDONTS is not available on Win XP or Win 2003. You will
need to use CDOSYS instead
