Forms won't work

[JA]

Hi, I just recently upgraded from FP2000 to FP2003. I have also moved my
site from NT4/IIS4 to Win2003/IIS6.

FP2003 is on my laptop, which I've left at work over this holiday weekend,
so I am working on the site using FP2000.

I have tried to set up some forms, but when I right-click on the forms and
go to Form Properties, all the top options are grayed out, except for "send
to other - asapi, etc".

Could this be because I am using FP2000, or would it be something else? The
extensions are installed.

Thanks, JA

Do you actually have a web open, or just a page?
How did you move your site?

Not quite sure what you mean, I'm working live on the server - the web is
open, and so is a page. My ISP transferred it, so I'm not sure how they did
it.

I was thinking that it might have something to do with the page I am using -
instead of using shared borders, it uses includes for the top, left, and
bottom borders. But, I just now went to the old server, which has the older
fp 2000 extensions (not the newer ones like on the new server), and tried to
do a form on a regular page that uses regular shared borders, and I'm
getting the same problem.

Could it be some setting in my FP 2000?

It would be important to know how they transferred the site.
