I am setting up a website with pages that a client would
fill in with their name address, phone numbers, email
address, etc (about 6-10 fields of info).  I would like
to do two things when the client hits the SUBMIT button:

1) I would like to send an automatic response indicating
the email and info has been received and someone will
contact the client

2) I would like to collect the info in the fields and get
it into my Outlook address book with a category depending
on which page the client was in when the client filled
the form.

Can anyone tell me how these can be done.  I would
obviously prefer having the data into Outlook directly
but would take any suggestions such as getting the info
into a database first (my host site supports MySQL but
not sure if they support Access.

Thanks.

One method for (2) is to have FrontPage generate an email message that contains the form data in a delimited format, then write extraction code (or use an existing tool) to get the data out of each message. See http://www.slipstick.com/addins/extract.htm for such solutions.
