I've created two separate forms: One an event registration and one for extra
"bonus" information that we would like to get. However, because some people
will register via mail and complete the second form only online, the first
two to three fields are the same. I've got the first form setup to go to the
second form as the confirmation page. However, I'd like to pre-populate
those "same" fields with the information from the first page. In addition to
an email, I have the first form's information also going to a database...can
i use that database to populate the form fields? Is there another, more
reliable way (i.e. to guard against the possibility that two forms will be
submitted simultaneously and, as a result, the last record in the database
may not be the one I want)? I've gathered from some other questions that I
will probably need to change the second form to an ASP file rather than
HTM...what else do I need to do to the two pages?
 
Sorry for the duplicate submission...it reported an error when i submitted it
the first time.
