I created a form in Frontpage and posted it. The responses to the form are
emailed to a particular person in our office. One of the form fields that is
required is an email field. When the data is sent to the receiver, is there
a way for the email data to appear as a hyperlink so they can simply click on
the link to respond to the form user? The email address is just coming as
general text right now.
 
The email address is sent as plain text, however some email clients will
render plain text email addresses and URLs as clickable links.

To have the email address sent as a "real" link you will have to use
server side scripting to parse the form data and construct links - the
script can also place the email address in the Reply-To header in the
email, so that the email can be simply replied to.
