HiI have two questions which I hope some of you might be able to answer for me.
1. On one computer I am running NT4 service pack 6b,, and I'm using IIS4 to run my ASP pages. I am using CDONTS to send mail returned by submitting a form. The thing is, my development machine does not seem to have it installed, and give sthe following error
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01ad'
ActiveX component can't create object: 'CDONTS.NewMail'
/asp4compu-it/reservation_mailer.asp, line 26
I understand that CDO is a component, but where can I get the bit that I'm missing? any ideas?
-----------------------------------------------------
2. At home I'm running Windows Millennium, and I want to use Active Server Pages in prokject using ultradev, but I need a local web server that I can test my ASP scripts on. I have thoought about using MS Personal Web Server from the NT4 option pack, but am unsure if this would be compatible with WinMe. Has anyone ever tried PWS on WinMe? Or do you know of any local web servers that i can use?
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Paul

Paul,
1. I know NT4 SP6 with PWS didn't support CDONTS, I used to have to comment out the CDONTS stuff and test it using Response.Write locally before uploading to my site where I could test it in full. (Not sure about IIS4). Best bet is Windows 2000 with IIS5, I can test locally, if I use valid E-mail addresses then leave IIS5 runnning, dial in and start Outlook Express I get a whole load of E-mails back.
2. Windows ME does not (oficially) support PWS, check out the following link for more information:
