Hi
I have created a simple form on my web site to test forms. I have se
it so that results are sent to _private/formrslt.txt, the default, whe
using the forms wizard page. So far so good but...
How do I see the results in the text file. Its probably obvious to man
but I don't know what to do.
Please help
Thanks

You will have to open the live web containing
_private/formrslt.txt using FrontPage. Then open
formrslt.txt in Notepad.

Hi Elena,

Is the error message more specific? Also, do you have a URL for the live
form where we can look at it?

Are you opening the web live on the server? do you know how to do that? The
file wont' be on your hard drive. You can set the form to have the results
emailed to you.

Make sure you have FrontPage extensions enabled on your host.
Open up FrontPage close down any webs you have open

Open the site live

File | Open | on the pop up box click 'Web Folders or network places for
older versions' on the left hand menu
Insert the url of the site you wish to open
e.g.: http://www.accessfp.net/


Click ok

A box will appear asking for your username and password insert these press
ok

In FrontPage, click on the navigation view so you know when the site will
come in.
