Hi, I'm creating a form that will have three visible elements:
-an "email" field
- a "password" field
- a "submit" button
(plus a couple labels)

The user will fill in the email and password fields, click submit, and
then the form should create an email with subject "your new password
is" and message body "your password is [whatever]" and send it. The
recepient will not nessassarily be using outlook; he may have another
email program or even webmail, so the emaiI sent should be basic plain
text, if possible

So I created a form and put the elements on it, but now what?

Thanks in advance, John

Details are going to depend on whether the "fields" are actual Outlook properties or unbound controls. In the Click event handler for the button, use Application.CreateItem to create the message. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/propsyntax.htm for details on getting the data from the fields/controls.
