I was following an ASP article that describes how to submit images or files via an ASP form, but I can't make it work. It uses a pure ASP approach, not requiring an ActiveX DLL to be registered on the server, which seemed like a good idea at the time. I may have to use an ActiveX if I can't get this ASP version to work. If anyone wants the URL I can post it.

Thanks for the procedure tip. I'm still trying to figure out ways to organize an ASP project. How do you get a procedure to respond to your "Save" button before the form is submitted?

>If you want to upload a file you can use a product like Software Artisans SA FileUp. www.softartisans.com will give you more details. If you are using form request there will be no data transfer with enctype="multipart/form-data" unless you are using an object such as described. Microsoft also has a "free" upload object (I gave up trying to use it) and went to the SA FileUp. If you do not require uploading files (pictures, etc.) do not use enctype="multipart/form-data".
