I haven't finished reading through the posts on this, so please excuse any redundancy... Addressing the question of collecting data from your forms and putting into a database, and visa versa: You can use .asp with Request commands to collect field information, as from a regular form. You can then update the database. Adding info from database to the forms is a little more tricky--this involves using the Adobe FDF toolkit, which is a free server-side component that comes with documentation on how to implement it (and there are a few samples on the web that are even more helpful). Works with classsic .asp, asp.net is a bit trickier and less reliable. As far as 5.0 vs. 6.0, I use 5.0 and have heard that the FDF gets a bit flakey with forms created in 6.0. Hope this helps! --- "Riopelle, Jodi (J.L.)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi there, I'm new to the list and I have a pretty > simple question (I think) > > I want to create interactive forms from word and > excel documents that I currently have. > (They will be stored in a database) I own 5.0 and > know I can do what I need to do, but I'm curious if > I upgrade to 6.0 if there are advantages.
