It would be far easier to just send the end users a 'link' in email, that
would open a webpage with the data they are to review/modify.  Fairly easy
to do in asp.  Just a thought.

	I need to send database data to end-users, have them modify, and
return
	back to me.
	My table contains 2 fields, [ProjectName] and [ProgressPrct].  I
have a
	form with 2 controls per record, txtProjectName (textbox) and
	cmbProgress (combo box).  The data on the combo box needs to be
updated
	on a weekly basis, with values of 0 - 100%, in increments of 10.
	 
	What is the easiest way to send this data for user reponse?
	I'm thinking that sending a user form as an attachment would work,
but
	I'm not sure what kind of form to use.  We've considered Outlook
forms,
	but creating this form from code is very time-consuming, and
uploading
	the returned data within customized fields sounds daunting.
	InfoPath would be ideal, but not all users have this program
installed.
	 
	Because the sending of this form will occur on a weekly basis, I'd
like
	to automate it as much as possible.
	Any direction is greatly appreciated.
	 
	Thanks.
