ASP CDONTS error

[*** JB]

Hi,
I have been building a shopping cart & the final page will email the order
to an address given however I get the following error message using my ASP
localhost server.

Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01AD)
ActiveX component can't create object: 'CDONTS.NewMail'
/webshop_v1.5/post.asp, line 6

Clearly something is messed up with the CDONTS ASP function - Do I need to
manually set up CDONTS on my server or is setup by default on IIS 5.1

Here is the code from the file "post.asp"
[url]http://www.qsconnect.co.uk/~gavin/post.asp[/url]

(Note this is a PHP server, therefore the link above will show the code of
the asp file & not actually execute it - just want to make that clear)

Many Thanks

There is no CDONTS in Windows XP. Use CDO.Message. See

If you want to use cdonts, you will need to copy the dll
from a windows 2000 server and register it.
