Can I use a text file to read info from. I have a text file with email
addresses. I want to be able to select one email address at a time send
the email and then go to the next address. I know how to do it all with a
database. The addresses are on seperate lines.

Yes, you can use the FileSystemObject to read a file line by line. It goes
something like this:
Dim fso, filInput, sEmail
Set fso = Server.CreateObject("FileSystemObject")
Set filInput = fso.OpenTextFile(Server.MapPath & "\yourFile.txt")
' cycle the file
Do While Not filInput.AtEndOfStream
sEmail = filInput.ReadLine
' do whatever you have to do with the e-mail address
Loop
' clean up
filInput.Close
Set filInput = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
HTH.

Perfect. Thanks. My list server sucks so I am going to use it for subscrib
e/unsubscribe and use asp to send out all the emails. It stores the addres
ses in a text file.
