Hi there,

I'm not sure if ASP alone can solve this problem and any feedback would be appreciated.

I have users submit their preferences for, say, a range of products. A database is queried and records matching the user's criteria are returned. I would like these record values to be put into an email message and sent automatically to the user in question.

I know that you can send email from ASP pages using CDONTS. However, is it possible to have an ASP page that sends email *automatically* as above, i.e. behind-the-scenes, without my intervention. Or do I need a VB component to do this?

Thanks for any pointers.

You wouldn't need anything other than CDONTS. Check out some nice samples at www.15seconds.com that demonstrates this object.

You will have to format the recordset results into the body of mail msg and send to the desired email address. Have fun. :-)
