I'm practicing greating a simple form with mutiple Radio Buttons under the
FromsButton1 group. All seems OK, but when I insert a forms button to submit
the form, I can't find where it gives me the Email-to option. Under the
Forms Button Properties and Type: all I have is a "Submit, Reset,
Button"
pull down option.
Any idea where all the options to email or save to file etc are at?
Thanks... Paul

Paul,
A submit button's action is part of the form's properties. Not the button
properties.
That being said... do you realize that those using web mail (AOL, Yahoo,
Gmail, etc.) rather than a mail client (Outlook, windows Mail, Outlook
express, etc.) won't be able to use your form if you use a mailto: action?
You should look into using a form-handling script instead of mailto.
If your web server has the PHP language available, you can use a good
general purpose script like Form@iler from dbMasters.
