    From w/ Mulpiple outputs

    I am new to programming in ASP so please forgive me if this seems trivial. I
    am editing a page someone else created. The page loads a list from a
    database, based on the selections (by clicking on the an item in the list it
    gets highlighted) the user has the option of pressing a button to reload the
    page with just what they have chosen all same page but calls others for
    queries and such. This page contains a <form> then has the button to reload
    with the selected events then </form>.

    I am trying to add the function to output the selected events to Excel,
    which I have been able to do by changing the page. The problem is we would
    like two buttons, one to output to a web page, the other to a Excel. Is
    possible to have two submit buttons in a form, one for web output and the
    other for Excel?

    Thanks

    wg

      yes - make sure each button has a diferent 'value' so your server-side
      script knows which was clicked.

          Could you please explain a little more, how do I structure it with the Form
          tag?

          Thanks

              In your form:

              <form name="..." method="..." action="...">
              ....

              <input type="Submit" name="cmdSubmit 1" Value="Button 1 Text">
              <input type="Submit" name="cmdSubmit 2" Value="Button 2 Text">
              </form>

              In your processor:

              If (Request.Form(" cmdSubmit1") <> "") Then

              ' The button labelled 'Button 1 Text' was clicked.

              ElseIf (Request.Form(" cmdSubmit2") <> "") Then

              ' The button labelled 'Button 2 Text' was clicked.

              End If

              Try that.
