Forms, Results & Confirmation Page

I am creating a registration form in FP2003 for a conference and am stuck in
a few places.

I have limited number of seats for different classes and I could use
suggestions on how to set an overall limit. Obviously, the field validation
isn’t sufficient.

Is there a way for me to do calculations in form fields? Ex., # attending *
fee

The data result fields on my confirmation page does not show. Only the
field names (web components).

Once you click submit form, I get a default confirmation page instead of my
page. You have to click back to form to see the confirmation page.

Can I format the htm results file that is emailed to not just list data
spanning across page?

I need results sent via email and would like the file to be an Access file
so that they can just update their database-is this possible. What are your
suggestions of sending them the results since they won’t have access to the
database saved on the server.

Thanks for your assistance.
 
You can't do class size limits client side
You must do it server side by saving a variable ( to your Access DB) w/ the last class count (starting w/ the limit as a value) and
then decrement that count in the DB w/ each new registration
- also use your DB to store and display the registration form results

For in page math use JavaScript
- see http://irt.org/script/form.htm
