    Hi blinko,

    I think you should get more help with this on the Techie board so I'll move your thread across.

  • If you are palnning to do this sort of thing on a website, you will need to use a server side code such as Asp.Net, PHP etc and a Access database or Sql database.

    There are some issuses with this such as having SSL ( the padlock at the bottom of the page), the security of the data store, and will you need to register with the data protection registrar, and take into account any liablity you may be exposed to if the data is hacked,

    Hi Blinko
    If you have Office 2003 use Infopath - it's a brilliant piece of software
