Dear Charliedog,
You can send form results (data that a site visitor enters in a form)
in an e-mail message. Each time a site visitor submits a form, a
message containing the results of the form is sent to the e-mail
address you specify. You can also configure other options for the
messages, such as the text for the Subject line and the address for the
To collect form results in an e-mail message, the server must be
configured to send e-mail. Contact your Web server administrator to
find out what program is being used to handle mail by the server. The
default n Windows servers, and by far the most common, is
CDONTS/CDOSYS. If this is what your server is using, you can simply
follow these steps:
In Page view, at the bottom of the document window, click Design.
Right-click the form, and then click Form Properties.
Click Send to.
In the E-mail address box, type the e-mail address to which you want to
send the form results.
If you do not want results saved to a file in addition to being sent in
e-mail, clear the File name box, and then click Options.
Click the E-mail Results tab.
Then do one or more of the following:
In the E-mail format list, click the text format you want.
To specify the subject line of the e-mail message, under E-mail message
header in the Subject line box, type the text that you want (If you
leave this box blank, the default subject line in the e-mail will be
"Form Results").
If you want the subject line of the e-mail message to contain the
results of one field from your form, next to Subject line select the
Form field name, check box, and then type the name of the field in the
Subject line box.
If you want a specific e-mail address to appear as the sender of the
e-mail message (the From or Reply To line in the e-mail), type that
address in the Reply-to line box.
If your form contains a field that collects the site visitor's e-mail
address, you can use that address as the sender's address. Next to
Reply-to line, select the Form field name, check box, and then in the
Reply-to line box, type the name of the form field.
Some hosting companies use different programs to handle mail on their
servers. Instructions for setting up form mail for all of the major
e-mail programs can be found at this URL (among many, many others):

Good luck, Charliedog, I expect great things from you.
