Does anyone know how I could take a number from a form object and divide it into another from object, then display it in yet another ?

For example, say I had a form with three text boxes, I type 18 in the first one, 6 in the second - and when i hit a submit button = 3 is diplayed in the third text box.

Is ASP the technology I should even be using ?

A thousand Thank You's to those who can help <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

if that's all your doing... you can just use Javascript... just make sure to name your text boxes accordingly....
here's an example, you can adapt it, just make sure you change the form names:<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>&lt;script language="javascript"&gt;
//put this in the head of the document
function dividenumbers() {
//change form1 to your form name
var f = document.form1;
var ans = f.box1.value / f.box2.value;
f.box3.value = ans;
}
&lt;/script&gt;

Then Add the "call javascript" behavior to a button or something (not a submit button, just a regular one) and put "dividenumbers()" (without the double quotes)

that should work

</font id=code></pre id=code>
