I am still learning when it comes to ASP and having the input from the forms inserted into a Microsoft Access Database. I was able to use the basic install and add it to one of our forms on our website that is sent via form mail. I am having problems now with adding the captcha to one of our forms that is being inserted into a Microsoft Access database. I understand one part of the code, has to be placed on the processing page. I honestly do not know what is the processing page. The form action is FORM ACTION="<%=MM_editAction%>" so I really don't know from there where it is being processed. Once the information is submitted, it redirects the user to another page saying that their information has been received. Can someone help me with this? I am losing my mind over here.

You need to look back in your code to where the variable MM_editAction is initialised. It should look something like:-

MM_editAction = "mypage.asp"

Once you locate this you should then see the page that the form is submitted too and processes the form submission.

Thank you for your reply. On the page, it states this:

Dim MM_editAction
MM_editAction = CStr(Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"))
If (Request.QueryString <> "") Then
MM_editAction = MM_editAction & "?" & Server.HTMLEncode(Request.QueryString)
End If

So I am still quite unsure where that goes to.

Looks like this is some really over complicated code to resubmit the page back on it's self.

The information that is inputted in the form gets sent to a Microsoft Access database which links to this portal where an employee can view the forms internally with a login/password. Would the processing page be where this information is submitted? When the user submits the form, it does redirect them to a confirmation page that lets them know the information has been submitted. I tried to use that page but that didn't work.

The processing page is the page where the form is submitted.

The code to check that the CAPTCHA code is entered correctly needs to run before the submitted code is processed, so if the CAPTCHA code is wrong the form is not processed and added to your database.
