Is there anyway to add an entry that can be accessed by the redirected page using Request.Form using ASP without physically making a form and clicking submit?

You could append parameters to the redirected url - e.g. myfile.asp?field1=x&Fld2=y

except they need to be accessed using request.form("fieldname") not request.querystring("fieldname")

The xmlhttp object has a POST option

Response.Buffer = True
Dim objXMLHTTP, myXml
Set myXml= Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")

' Notice the two changes in the next two lines:
myXml.Open "POST", http://www.sourcesite.com/pagetorun.htm - http://www.sourcesite.com/pagetorun.htm , False
myXml.Send "Field1=All&Field2=The Usual Suspects"

Response.Write myXml.responseText

Set myXml= Nothing

The response.write will print the output from the posted to page.
