Hi Mark.

i want to write a web dll that takes in a few parameters and then sends an email with the address, subject etc coming from the parameters.

If you have a copu of "MefaFox: 1002 Things You Wanted to Know About Extending VFP", Chapter 4 is all about sending and receiving e-mail. We have comlete classes and detailed examples that use CDO for Windows 2000 to do exactly what you want to do.
