I get a FrontPage Error when I try to submit a form I made in Fro.

[CLC]

I have FrontPage 2000 and use the program to create a form. When I test the
form I get an error "Front Page Error." without much detail. The URL
displays _vti_bin/shtml.exe in it yet, I can't find an _vti_bin folder (even
tho I checked the Advanced option to show hidden files/folders).
I tested this with a minimal form of just one field and got the same error.
I think the server extensions are installed because I can edit the pages from
the web, etc.
Not sure what's going on? This is the HTML code for the form:
<form method="POST" name="Spring Symposium 2005 Registration Form"
action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" S-Label-Fields="TRUE"
B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE" S-Email-Format="TEXT/PRE"
S-Email-Address="(e-mail address removed)" B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE"
B-Email-Subject-From-Field="TRUE"
S-Email-Subject="Symposium 2005 Registration" S-Date-Format="%B %d, %Y"
S-Time-Format="%I:%M %p" S-Builtin-Fields="Date Time"
U-Confirmation-Url="../paypal_cc.htm" U-File="_private/form_results.htm"
S-Format="TEXT/CSV" -->

First remove all spaces from the form "Name" also change the result file type to plain text and
test.

Thanks for your help. I tried this and the form data was saved to a text file
but I still get the error message on the web when I submit. Here's the HTML
with your changes.

<form method="POST" name="Spring_Symposium_2005_Registration_Form"
action="../_vti_bin/shtml.exe/SpringPlanningSymposium/registration2_cc2.htm"
webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" U-File="_private/form_results.txt"
S-Format="TEXT/CSV" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE"
S-Email-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Email-Address="(e-mail address removed)"
B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Email-Subject-From-Field="TRUE"
S-Email-Subject="Symposium 2005 Registration" S-Builtin-Fields
U-Confirmation-Url="../paypal_cc.htm" startspan --><input TYPE="hidden"
NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><!--webbot bot="SaveResults" endspan
i-checksum="43374" -->
<p class="MsoNormal" align="left">Name: <input type="text" name="Name"
size="20"></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><input type="submit" value="Submit"
name="Submit"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="Reset"></p>
</form>

Here's the error message:
FrontPage Error.
User: please report details to this site's webmaster.

Webmaster: please see the server's system log for more details.

Thanks for your help.

You have a pathing problem
If the save results are in
U-File="_private/form_results.txt"
the conform page can not be in
U-Confirmation-Url="../paypal_cc.htm
The first implies the form is in the root
The second implies the form is one folder below the root

One of the 2 is wrong
