In an e-comm site I would like to receive an email to confirm that there has
been a website order. This email would contain a link to a web page that
contains all the order, customer and payment details. Any ideas how I would
do this?

Put this in your message:

"Thank you for ordering Please view your order <A
HREF=http://www.yoursite.com/OrderView.asp?id="

Then use a contract to insert a field into the message containing the order
ID. "12345"

Then put this in your message:

">here</A>."

3 contracts make your message look like this:

Thank you for ordering Please view your order <A
HREF=http://www.yoursite.com/OrderView.asp?id=12345>here</A>.

Then on the view order page, you use

Request('id')

to filter/SQL parameter the recordset.
