I am starting a new thread in hopes that someone can help
me. I have included alot of information. If more is
needed please let me know.
Here is the plan. I have designed a Survey Form in Word
using Visual Basic Editor. I saved it as a web page. I
would like to send this form as an attachment to
recipients within the company network. They in turn will
open up the page and fill out the survey, and then click
on the "Submit" button at the bottom of the form and have
the survey form come back to me via email. Then I can
print off the form for reference.
When I test the process, and click the "submit" button, I
get an email notification, but the screen is blank. I
have been told that a URL is needed. But I am not sure
what the URL would be for a form saved to my desktop. Nor
am I sure where to include this information. Below are
the instructions from the help section of VB regarding the
submit button.
(Properties
Action Enter the location of the file that opens when
the user clicks the submit button. The action attribute
becomes the URL of the <FORM> tag. Mailto operations are
supported in this field; enter the Internet mail address
after "mailto:".
Caption The text that appears on the button.
Encoding Stores the MIME type used to encode the
submitted form. This field defaults to "application/x-www-
form-urlencoded".
HTMLName The internal name you assign to the control.
The name is used to identify the field name when the
information is sent to a Web server.
Method The method to be used for submitting the form:
POST or GET.)
The instruction under "Action" are not very detailed. I
guess I am supposed to include the URL and email
information here, but it does not tell me the syntax to
use or give any examples.
Here is the code information from the "submit" button.
<p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-
align:center'><span
style='font-family:Arial'><INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT"
ACTION="mailto:[email protected]" VALUE="Send"
<o
></o></span></p>
Here is the information I entered in the "properties" of
the "submit" button.
(Name) - DefaultOcxName19
Action - mailtomy email address)
Caption - Send
Encoding - application/x-www-form-urlencoded (default)
Height - 22.5
HTML Name - blank
Method - Get
Width - 31.5
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
