If you want to see Response.Flush in action, go to my website: http://www.emailajoke.com and create a list of people to receive jokes. Then, send a joke to your list and as each one is e-mailed, I write out the name and e-mail address to the screen so you know where it's at in processing. That's how I know this works...
