Hi,
I'm building a website and I want to include a mailing list. I just
want a form where a user could enter their email address, so I could
send them more information. I assume that the best way to do this is
with ASP. Right now, I'm learning ASP by testing pages using Abyss
web sever with Active HTML. I have XP Home, so I can't use IIS. Here
are my questions:
1. Is ASP the best way to create a mailing list
2. Can I just use excel for the database - not access
3. How do I connect to the database. I've read about using ODBC, but
I think that would only work when the web server is on my computer. If
I got someone to host the site for me, I don't think that would work.
4. Is there an easy way to mail to the names in the database?
Hopefully I'm on the right track.
Thanks,
E
