| Hi, first of all thank you so much for your help
| I did every thing excactly as you told me but when I run the form and click

| "FrontPage Run-Time Component Page
| You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web
| server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.
|
| This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish
| this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.
|
| Click the <Back> arrow to return to the previous page."
