I need to have a form update another form anybody know how?

Dan

Is the other form on the same page or a different page?

I am also wanting to know how this can be done. I have to design a form that has multiple pages. I was wondering how the values from the first page is passed to the second page and so on. Appreciate sharing some ideas.

Seems like some extra information is needed. But here is some general info.

If you are reloading pages (or frames), then using either hidden input values or cookies is the preferred way to do this, IMO. I find hidden input values good for linking between two forms, but linking b/w multiple forms seems a job that cookies were designed for.

If you're trying to get form data to update live, then i suggest using javascript cookies in order to pass data back and forth.

Well here is my situation:

I have a loginform.asp that has username and password.
Once the user is loged in I need to keep the username in memory for use it the other form called weeklyupdate.asp.

Then I store there weekly stats in MS access db with the username as primary key!

Any ideas

I vote for using a cookie. A simple explanation of how to communicate with cookies is found here:

This way you could store the user name as one attribute (for use later in your db) and also, set an attribute as to whether or not a user is currently "logged in" (so they don't have to keep entering their information).
