Hello all -

Thanks!

ok so i've got somewhat of a start...i'm referencing the Microsoft Internet Controls library, but i now i need to figure out how to populate the fields on the page. I know i have to look at the HTML source of the page to find what the fields on the page are called, but i dont know how to reference them in my code, and then assign the values from my database. Anyone have any thoughts?
