Re: forms to text files with asp

This should do what you need. 
<%
  Set Fso = Server.Createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
  Set File =
Fs.OpenTextFile(""frm_submitted_"&replace(formatdatetime(now(),3),"
","_")&".txt", 8, true)

  'the following loops through the form and writes the name and value 
  'of each element to the file
  for each item in request.form
    File.Write item & ":" & request.form(item)& ","
  next
  'the name and value pairs are colon(:) delimited. 
  'the elements are comma(,) delimited, as requested. This is very easy 
  'to change
  File.Close
  Set File = Nothing
  Set Fs = Nothing
    
%>
