Answers

How do I set write permissions on the required folder?

Form2Excel requires to set write permissions on folder "HDWForm2Excel/saved_forms".

There should be an option in your web hosting control panel to set write permissions. If it's not present, you may can contact your web hosting service and request the write permissions for the ASP code.

Note: In Windows servers the permissions can't be set directly through FTP programs.



I am getting them email with form submission and the data is being saved in the excel file, but the attachments are not coming through ...why?

Please add the enctype="multipart/form-data" and method="post" attribute for uploads

<form action="/HDWForm2Excel/Form2Excel.asp" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

These attributes are requiredin order to upload files using the form.


My server has some particular specifications for sending emails from ASP. Can I configure these specifications into ASPForm2Excel?

ASPForm2Excel try to send the email primary by using CDOSYS and CDONTS with the most common configurations. However ASPForm2Excel is ready to accept third party email components: ASPMail, JMail and ASPEmail.

If you want to setup ASPForm2Excel manually to use some component, you can go to line #8 and change the C_MAIL_USE value:

  ' Possible values are "CDOSYS", "CDONTS", "ASPEmail", "ASPMail", "Jmail"
  Const C_MAIL_USE = "CDOSYS"

If your web server requires a custom external SMTP address you can put it in the line#11:

  Const SMTP_SERVER = "localhost"

Special Note for GoDaddy Users: In GoDaddy the SMTP server is "relay-hosting.secureserver.net", that means:

  Const SMTP_SERVER = "relay-hosting.secureserver.net"



My server requires a different SMTP address and authentication. How can I configure it?

You can go to the file "Form2Excel.asp", line #11 and set the address of a different (SMTP) host:
 
  Const SMTP_SERVER = "localhost"
 
Change localhost with the address of the external mail server.
 
If your SMTP server requires authentication it can be configured at line #203:
 
          'objMail.Configuration.Fields.Item _
          '    ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "YOUR-USERNAME"
          'objMail.Configuration.Fields.Item _
          '    ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "YOUR-PASSWORD


Uncomment (remove the leading single quotes) the lines and put your own username and password used for authentication.


Is possible to send copies of the form submission to multiple email addresses at the same time?

Yes, it is possible. Open for edition the Form2Excel.asp file generated by the extension. At line #166 you can add the following lines to send copies of the form submission.

SendMail "copy1@example.com", emailaddress, emailsubject, body
SendMail "copy2@example.com", emailaddress, emailsubject, body

...and copies of the original email will be sent to copy1@example.com and copy2@example.com respectively.



Can the form send a CC to the user as well? I want the user to receive a copy of the email for their records with a "thank you" comment at the top.

Yes, it's possible. Add this code on line #166 (into the Form2Excel.asp file):

  SendMail Request.Form("clientemail"),fromaddress,emailsubject,"Thank you!!<br />"&body

In your form "clientemail" must be the name of the field where the client enter his email address.



How can I edit the "Form2Excel.asp" document so that when the email comes through, it has the email address and subject filled out from the user on the form, instead of the default values?

To use a subject posted from your form, go to file "Form2Excel.asp", line #75:

emailsubject= "Form sent from " & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")

...change it to:

emailsubject= Request.Form("your-subject-field-name")

Note: "your-subject-field-name" is the name of the "subject" field on your form.
 
To use an email posted from your form modify the line #73:
 
fromaddress = Request.Form("
your-email-field-name")

Note: "your-email-field-name" is the name of the "email" field on your form.

Additional note: If you are using upload fields in your form then contact our support service for additional information.


When I double click the MXP file I'm getting this error: "Extension requires more recent version of Macromedia Extension Manager". How can I solve this?

Download the most recent version of the Adobe/Macromedia Extension Manager or the version related to your Dreamweaver version:

I'm getting this error message "Is not possible to create data structure.". What's happening?

Please, change the "Links relative to" setting in the site configuration options (Dreamweaver 8 or later).

If this setting does not solve the problem, then follow these steps:

  1. Restart Dreamweaver
  2. Be sure that you have a local web site defined in Dreamweaver
  3. Open the page where you want to insert the extension(this page must be saved previously into your web site)
  4. Try to insert the extension again

Yes, you can. These extensions are tested in all actual browsers and used from Dreamweaver on both platforms, PC and MAC.


I have downloaded the new program, but cannot seem to access it from the command panel.

Did you restart Dreamweaver after double clicking the MXP file? Please remember to restart Dreamweaver after double clicking the MXP file.


I'm getting this message "Please define your site first.". What I should do?

It's required to define a working site in Dreamweaver because Dreamweaver needs to know where to place the files.

Download here a PDF document with help about defining a site in Dreamweaver.



This extension works with Dreamweaver CC?

Yes, all our extensions are compatible with the most recent Dreamweaver versions, including Dreamweaver MX, Dreamweaver MX 2004, Dreamweaver 8, Dreamweaver CS3, Dreamweaver CS4 and Dreamweaver CS5, CS5.5, CS6, CC 2014 .. CC 2019.


When I preview my web page after I get this message in my Internet Explorer,"To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted...". What is the problem?

If you are testing your page directly from your local hard disk in IE 7, this message appears:

"To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer. Click here for options."

In IE 7 this message appears when you test a web page that contains a script or Flash item directly form your local hard disk. When you upload your page to an online web server that message does not appear.

The address from a web server must start with http:// or https:// . On the other hand if the address starts with C:\ or file:// then you are testing it from your local hard disk.

Just upload your web page to your web site and you will see that the error disappears.

PayPal's status as a financial institution exempts PayPal orders from sales tax. CodePeople will be the retailer of record. CodePeople is based in Switzerland and does not have any US sales tax obligations.


I'm getting this error: "TypeError: THE_DOM has no properties" . There is a workaround?

Please follow these steps:
  1. Check if  you have defined a local web site at dreamweaver.
  2. Check if you have saved the page into your local web site.
  3. If you are using Dreamweaver templates, check if your templates allow an "Editable Region" in the <HEAD> section of the HTML code.
  4. Mark the "Use case-sensitive link checking" option in the site settings and recreate your site cache.
  5. After these checks, please restart your Dreamweaver and try again.
If the above actions don’t solve the problem, then probably the reason is a wrong HTML structure in the page that you are trying to use the product, in this case, please check the page’s HTML structure and if you cannot find the problem then contact our support service.


I'm getting the error "Can't update menus. Extension will not be installed". What is the solution?

That's due to a bug in the Adobe Extension Manager that sometimes corrupts the "Menus.xml" file. That file can be found in the following location:

Windows users: C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\Application Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver [version]\Configuration\Menus\menus.xml

Mac users: HD:Users:username:Library: Application Support:Macromedia:Dreamweaver [version]:Configuration:Menus:Menus.xml

To fix this problem close your Dreamweaver and try the following:

  1. Un-install all your extensions and then re-install them one at a time. This will work in most cases.
  2. If the above doesn't work then delete the "Menus.xml" file. After this you will need to disable and enable your extensions in order to get the menu entries again.
  3. If none of the above works then there is more than one file corrupted, the solution in this case will be to completely uninstall Dreamweaver and reinstall it again.
