Thanks Karl, I have downloaded your file and will have a look at it. Having tried two other form examples I found online with still the same Error #2101 results, I moved the PHP to my server and it works fine. So Karl, you may be right that it is something to do with the PHP version or a glitch with the server. Very confusing.
