Deb - The changes you make should be almost instantaneous. If it isn't, then you have a super slow network connection. And for the record, I don't think I've ever rebooted after making such a change. I can't imagine that my company would be happy if I rebooted the server everytime I adjusted

No, you don't have to reboot each time. What folder are you trying to share? Is it just a normal folder, or is it a system folder? Yes, if you are sharing a folder on the desktop, and add a file to that folder, you should see it on the laptop - instantly - if you are looking at THAT shared

Deb - The term mapping just means assigning a drive letter to a networked shared folder. It allows you to access it by using L:\Transfer instead of \\desktop\Transfer. So if you can't see those shared folders, mapping isn't going to get you any further. It really isn't smart to share out your

Uninstall it. WordPerfect (any version) installs by default an array of other applications / utilities, some of which then start up with your computer. It's possible that you clicked on one of these utilities without knowing what it was, and now it wants to correct it. Todd -Original

May be possible that they updated their server to Windows 2003 (and didn't change their website info), which doesn't support CDONTs (ok, it does but not by default). You can try using CDO instead and see if that works. Here is how your script would look using CDO: Dim objSendMail Set

Riva - I have a similar script in that it loops through the variables of the form. However, it's being sent as HTML. With that, I'm just using the br tag - which works great. It also then allows me to strongbold/strong my objects, and it makes for easier reading by the recipient. I'm not sure
